I have been meaning to post this since my trip to St. John in August, better late than never. This baby is a 5 pounder that put up quite a fight...I ended up winning.

Wonderful photo and one beautiful beast, congratulations on the composition, Bravo :lol:

I hope that the evening lasted long enough for you & friends to smoke ALL those cigars. :P

What kind of Lobster is that ? My wife is from Newfoundland & they don't look like that there. How did you catch it/what with ?

Holly smokers that's one big beast! How did it get prepared? Boiled/Broiled/Butter Poached?

And I agree it looks like a Caribbean lobster.

What, you couldn't put a Cohiba logo on the lobster too?

No need to, look at it's tail.

It looks like an authentic Cohiba lobster to me. :D

I always those were referred to as "Rock Lobsters" vs the Atlantic Lobster.

I ate three of those once one night in the Dominican. Don't ask how the next day was.

Hope you didn't get any lobster juice on all those Cohiba's!

Everyone is correct, this is a Caribbean lobster, I SCUBA dive and catching them can be quite a trick. They hide in little caves and cracks and you tickle them out with a stick and snare them or trick them into a net. I caught 67 the month we were there, unfortunately they were not all this big.

All of the above including lobster eggs, lobster Bisque, lobster salad...well you get the idea. Don't worry he had a great cigar for his last request.

Nice. That's St. John in USVI?

Yes, the closest place on earth left that is reminiscent of the Garden of Eden. If any of you consider going down we will be there from Aug 21-Sept 21, any of my FOH brothers that care to join me will get all the lobster you can eat and Cubans cigars till you puke.

I hit St. John for the first time myself this year, a few days of bliss, wonderful island and enjoyed my smokes immensely.

I hope to go down again toward fall, maybe I'll see you....
