How to Prepare Your Maine Lobster Claws

Important: These Maine lobster claws are already fully cooked and ready to eat. DO NOT cook from raw – overcooking will make the delicate meat tough and chewy.

Best Serving Method – Chilled: Serve cold over ice with fresh lemon wedges, drawn butter, and cocktail sauce for the ultimate Maine lobster cocktail experience.

How to Reheat Maine Lobster Claws (Optional)

To serve Maine lobster cocktail claws warm with butter and lemon, follow these methods for the best texture:

🔥 Oven Method (Recommended):

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F
2. Place your Maine lobster claws on aluminum foil
3. Sprinkle with several drops of water to create steam
4. Wrap the cocktail claws completely in foil
5. Place wrapped claws on a baking sheet
6. Warm in the oven for 5-10 minutes until heated through
7. Serve immediately with melted butter, lemon, and fresh herbs

⚡ Microwave Method (Quick Option):

1. Wrap your Maine lobster claws in a damp paper towel
2. Heat in 30-second bursts on medium power (50%)
3. Check after each burst – stop when just warmed through
4. Critical: Don’t overcook as claws can become rubbery

Other Gentle Options:

• Light Steam: 2-3 minutes only to warm through
• Warm Water Bath: Submerge in warm (not hot) water for 3-4 minutes

⚠️ Reheating Warning: Keep heating time minimal – overheating ruins the tender texture that makes Maine lobster claws so prized.
