   Remove lobster and allow it to cool. Remove lobster tails and cut shell down to middle to remove the meat. Cut the tail meat down the middle to remove the vein inside. Remove large claws and smaller legs by twisting them away from the body. A nut cracker can be used to crush the claw and legs to remove the meat inside.
