Connecticut
If you like lobster, you'll love this. There are difference between lobsters. My husband and I had a lobster business for twenty six years. There are female lobsters and there are male lobsters. A lot of people, they like the female because they like the row in it, which is an orange part of it. Your Your Maine lobster is a traditional lobster that is a mayonnaise best, and it's cold. Your Connecticut is a hot and buttery lobster roll. So it is dipped in hot drawn better. It is heated. Then after it's hot enough, we put it out on the roll and then we pour hot butter on it. So it's dipped in butter twice. You'll ask which one they want and if they say a traditional, it's the main. If they say a Connecticut or a hot, that's what that would be.
