THis sounds soooooooooo good. LOL, we use to have a house in maine! We would spend our summers there. There is nothing like seafood right off the boat. I was spoiled. Nothing compares in seafood now. I am keeping this recipe.


Decadent! WOW... I love Lobster, haven't had it in years.. way to expensive for us.. This sounds so good!!!


Oh this sounds good! I think I've got you beat, though. Last year for Christmas, I made stuffed beef tenderloin. The recipe called for lobster, but I couldn't imagine paying $25/lb for that, so I used sea scallops. Just as tasty, but also expensive. This recipe does sound pricey though, so it will have to wait.


This is torture. Maine lobster costs about $75 a pound here with the euro so high.


Just wanted to say it sounds great. And to trackwidow, lobster where I live is bringing 36.00 per pound so 25.00 sounds like a bargain to me, lol.


I wonder if I can convince my better half that Labor Day is a special enough occasion for lobster! This sounds fabulous!
