What is the best lobster size for eating? For the true lobster experience each person should crack into his or her own individual lobster. No sharing allowed, unless you order a large jumbo lobster! The larger lobsters not only weigh more but will have a higher proportion of meat. Hence, they will cost more per pound. Sometimes the real big lobsters can be cheaper per pound than Select lobsters. Graded lobsters are sold by size and by shell quality. While lobsters are graded by size it is best to buy healthy, stronger lobsters instead of ones that are a specific size.
