I never made lobster tail before and decided to give it a try for Valentine's Day. It was so easy and really delicious. I didn't quite understand the instructions for cutting the cartiladge since I've never worked with lobster before - but i just winged it and it turned out good. I made garlic butter for the side also.<\/p>","CommentId":17,"DateRated":"02\/15\/2011 17:00","GUID":"cfec4bad53964704adf68b16ebc0122c","MemberId":5569872,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"dharris66","SubmittedDate":"02\/15\/2011 17:00"},{"Comment":"

I'm making these again tonight, for the first time since November 2010. Lobster can be so expensive, and it's something I definitely don't want to mess up.
