Content: I have established a relationship with a lobsterman in Maine and he told me that he wouldn't sell me a lobster much bigger than 2 lbs. Beyond that, he says, the flavor really suffers. The aged 'toughness" of the meat lends itself to better sashimi slices. But like everything else, there is a limit. Reply

I thought the whole bigger lobsters are tougher business was a myth. Larger lobsters are easier to overcook, making them tougher...but cooked properly they are no tougher.
