Characteristics
Slipper Lobsters have no claws – the meat we enjoy comes from the tail. It’s sweet and tasty and although not quite a substitute for Maine Lobster meat, it’s still delicious and versatile (at a good price). Slipper lobster meat is white and firm.

Slipper Lobster Meat is great in soups (especially chowder), salads or other preparations where you would feature Rock Lobster meat.
