Florida Lobster Tail

The Florida Lobster Tail at Joe’s Stone Crab is a prized regional specialty, typically sourced from the Florida Keys and known for its firm texture and savory flavor.

Preparation Styles

1. Fried Lobster Tails: A signature and unique preparation where the tails are breaded and deep-fried until golden. This style is a "fabulous" alternative for those seeking something different from the standard steamed or grilled lobster found elsewhere.
2. Broiled or Grilled: For a more traditional experience, tails are broiled or grilled and served with Joe's signature herb butter.
3. Lobster Mac and Cheese: A popular side dish featuring generous chunks of fresh lobster meat.

Portion & Sizing

1. Weight: In-house and shipping portions (via Goldbelly) typically feature tails weighing between 12–14 oz.
2. Chilled Option: Joe’s Take Away frequently offers a Chilled ½ Florida Lobster (stuffed with crabmeat salad) as a lighter, handheld-adjacent option.
