Instructions: The easiest way to cook a lobster is to boil for 12 minutes in salted water.

Add 1 teaspoon salt for every quart of water. Bring water to a rapid boil and plunge lobster - head first - into water. Return to a boil and cook for 12 to 15 minutes.

Remove lobster and serve with melted butter, lemon wedges, lobster crackers and lots and lots of napkins.
