Eight buttery New England style "split-top" rolls baked by Amato's, an iconic Maine sandwich shop. These are a must-have for a true lobster roll experience, folks!

Our exclusive, top-secret spice blend created by an award winning Maine lobster chef using a recipe so secret, only two people know all the ingredients.

*Mayo not included. We recommend 2 tablespoons per roll, or skip the mayo and add melted butter to taste.

A special note from our Founder/Chief Curator, Mark Murrell, about our special split-top rolls:

"Growing up, there was this Italian sandwich shop and bakery in Maine that always had the best breads. This sandwich shop (Amato's) still one of Maine’s most iconic establishments to enjoy handcrafted sandwiches and Italian fare. And, we are super proud to announce that they bake the rolls for our roll kit. I made a very unique request of them that may seem slight, however I believe makes all the difference. WE ASKED THEM NOT TO SPLIT THE TOP OF THE BUN. You see, it's often the slight modifications that takes good to great! See my quick video below."

Arrives ready to thaw and enjoy! Detailed instructions included - you’ll be eating your authentic lobster rolls in five minutes or less.

Orders containing 2 LBs lobster meat/2 roll kits or more may come with the lobster meat packed in two-pound bags. If you would like specific packaging for your order, please reach out to our folks in customer support for assistance upon completing your order.

What’s Safe To Eat On A Lobster:

Are the eggs inside the tail edible?
Yes. However, if the eggs are black, it means your lobster isn't cooked enough. Cook the lobster until the eggs turn RED! Red eggs, or “lobster caviar,” are delicious and fine to eat.

What about the green stuff  (tomalley)?
Tomalley is the liver of the lobster, located between the tail and the body. Many people love it and consider it a delicacy. Some do not like it and discard it.

What’s the white stuff on the lobster meat?
That is the fat from the lobster, which can stick to the meat. It is normal and can be eaten or discarded. If you’re preparing cooked lobster meat for later, a great way to remove the fat is by placing the cooked meat in a bath of salty water and gently rubbing it off.

Storage Instructions:

We recommend enjoying your lobsters the same-day you receive them. However, what if your event is on Monday and you receive your lobsters on Friday? How do you keep those lobsters alive for three days?

Answer: You don’t! You “Blanch” them. Thanks to some genius chefs, there is a way to make your whole live Maine lobsters last more than 3 days and still taste like it just came out of the ocean.

Blanching is easy:

• Boil water: add 1 tablespoon of sea salt per 2 quarts of water.
• Place lobsters in boiling water. Best to do 2 at a time for optimal blanching.
• Cook for 2 minutes ⏲. This is just enough time for the lobster meat to slightly cook and separate from the shell.
• Set up an ice bath for the lobsters.
• After 2 minutes of cooking, place lobsters in ice bath for 10 minutes.

Then, depending upon when you want to serve your lobsters:

• Within 48 hours: Wrap in kitchen towels & place in fridge until ready to use. 
• Post 48 hours - 3 weeks: Wrap & Freeze; Slow-Thaw in fridge for 24 hours before preparing.
