Every year for a brief time at Christmas Costco sells a frozen bag (about 2-3 lbs) of lobster claws. This year I only saw it for a week but managed to snag 3 bags which I will save for a special treat over the next several months.
I find tail meat to be much tougher than claw meat.
Our fancy takeout is tonight (Eve of the Eve) but anticipate that leftovers will play a role in tomorrow's dinner, too.
