This is actually one of my daddy's recipes. He's a commercial fisherman, but he finds time to make this whenever the family is together. But don't be fooled this simple recipe is one of the best out there.

This deep-fried lobster recipe was a hit with my family! The lobster was crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The dipping sauce was also delicious.
