Notes
This butter-poached lobster is meant to be eaten as soon as it is done cooking. Once cool, cover and keep it in the poaching liquid in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. Can freeze this covered for up to 3 days. Thaw it in the refrigerator for 1 day before reheating. If the lobster is overcooked, it will get very chewy. This is uniquely salty, so be sure to taste it first before seasoning it.
