Just put it on its back and push the point of the blade into the head and chop down with the heel of the knife. Some people put them in the freezer for a few minutes to keep them from moving around.

So if it's on it's back, you're pushing the knife basically into its face?

Also, do you need a big sharp knife?

nah a small dull one should do. jk. Post pics though, and recipe, I have never done a lobster before and want to sometime.

Cooking a lobster normally is super easy. you just boil water, drop the lobster in for 12 minutes or so.

I'm going to make it into a soup, which involves cutting it in half first.
