Hard to figure time on boiled lobster. Elizabeth said about 3 minutes but I remember from last time it was more than that on the package. Could it be 11 minutes. Seems long. Most of what I read is about that time. I'll try it.
INSTAPOT
3 minutes, high pressure, quick release, 4 cups of water, trivet, ~1.5-2lb lobster. Caught by a friend I stayed with in Boston this weekend. Made two in a row this way, both came out great.
Had trouble finding much beyond lobster tails anywhere online in an instant pot. Make sure they were alive just before cooking. Zoidberg-y red shelled, tails curled tight when done, tail meat 135degreesF. If you've made it this far, hope it helps :)

Another poster went to 8 minutes.

Another went with just two cups water and a cup of beer. 4 minutes
Not successful. I got good steam, but it never started the timer. We took it out cooked, but felt like the steam gadget was not working, just leaking, not sealing. I think we are back to cooking them in boiling water and a large pot.
I've researched and it much more than three minutes. At least nine or ten. I may do eleven. Time for two lobsters is the same as for one.
IN A POT ON THE STOVE.
I let a good bit of water boil before I put the lobster in for 9 minutes
