you cut up a live lobster? if you don't want to cook it whole and immerse it in boiling water first, you are supposed to first split the head with a sharp knife to kill it, then cut it up.

The're pretty iced up and covered with a wet towell and kept in a cooler...pretty lethargic. I will remember that in the future as I would cut off the claws first, then the tail.

Reminds me of my first job out of school. One of the guys decided to host a lobster picnic.

They dug a hole in his backyard to create a steam pit. Nothing went right, but it turned out okay.

Somebody bought a book after the fact on how to do it, and you're supposed to kill the lobbies before you put them on
the seaweed to be slowly steamed.
