Grandma's Stuffed Lobster image

This is my grandmother's recipe for stuffed coldwater lobster. It is far and away my favorite meal, and if you feel like splurging you will not be disappointed. Also, this same stuffing is excellent for fish. Serve with more melted butter for dipping.

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ cup butter, or as needed
½ pound bay scallops
2 cups ground butter round crackers (such as Ritz®)
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add scallops; cook and stir until opaque, about 6 minutes.
  • Combine the cooked scallops and melted butter from the skillet, ground crackers, graham cracker crumbs, and poultry seasoning in a bowl. Mix well, adding additional melted butter if the stuffing is too dry.
  • Bring 2 inches water to a boil in a large pot. Place lobsters in pot; steam until bright red, about 20 minutes.
  • Lay cooked lobsters on the their backs on a work surface. Wear gloves and make an incision between the legs down to the tail using a heavy knife. Pry open the chest cavity and rinse out innards with warm water. Fill the chest cavity and tail with the stuffing until overflowing.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place stuffed lobsters on their back on a baking sheet.
  • Bake under the broiler until stuffing has browned, about 5 minutes.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler stuffed lobster recipe next time.

The stuffed lobster was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but this stuffed lobster was amazing! The lobster was tender and juicy, and the stuffing was out of this world. I'll definitely be making this dish again.

I've been cooking stuffed lobster for years, and this recipe is definitely one of the best. The combination of lobster, crab, and shrimp is divine. And the stuffing is so flavorful and light.
