Lobsters simmered in aromatic broth with salt, onions, garlic, citrus, and celery.
Ingredients:
  • 3 gallons water
  • 2 large onions, quartered
  • 10 cloves garlic, peeled and cut in half
  • 2 lemons, quartered
  • 2 oranges, quartered
  • 5 stalks celery, quartered
  • 4 tablespoons black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons seasoned salt
  • 6 fresh jalapeno peppers
  • 2 fresh live lobsters
Instructions:
  • In a large pot, combine water, onions, garlic, lemons, oranges, celery, black pepper, seasoned salt, and jalapeño peppers. Bring to a vigorous boil and cook for 20 minutes.
  • Add fresh, succulent lobsters and cover the pot with a lid. Simmer until the shells turn a vibrant red and the meat turns opaque, approximately 15 minutes (adjusting for lobster size).
  • Transfer the lobsters from the pot to a colander and rinse them under cool running water to halt the cooking.
