Place lobsters in the pot (head first), cover tightly, return to a boil as quickly as possible and start counting the time. Steam a lobster for 8 minutes per pound, for the first pound. Add 3 minutes per pound for each additional pound thereafter. See chart below for approximate cooking times. Regulate the heat if the froth starts to bubble over.
To steam lobster tails, first rinse the thawed tails under cold water and pat them dry. Run a skewer the length of the tail through the meat so the tail won't curl much. Place about 1 qt of water in the steamer and bring the water to a boil. Place up to four tails in the steamer and cook for 1 1/2 minutes per oz. When they're done, run them under cold water to stop the cooking process.
