Save this Post. 1. Re: aruba's weather in December. Oct 30, 2005, 8:31 AM. December is the tail end of the rainy season, if you can call anytime in Aruba the rainy season. I short rain/shower is not unusual, but certainly, you won't have a wash out. It should for the most part be a warm sunny time for you.
Quick Answer. The time it takes to steam a lobster tail depends on the weight of the lobster. A 2-ounce tail takes 10 minutes, a 4-ounce tail takes 12 minutes, a 6-ounce tail takes 15 minutes, an 8-ounce tail takes 20 minutes, and a 12-ounce tail takes 25 minutes. Anything heavier than 14 ounces generally takes more than 30 minutes to steam.
2 Lower the lobsters into the pot: Grasp the lobster by the body and lower it upside down and head first into the boiling water. Continue to add the live lobsters to the pot in this manner. Cover the pot. 3 Boil lobsters for 12 to 20 min, depending on size: Note the time at which the water comes to a boil again. From that point, boil the lobsters for 12-20 minutes or longer, depending on the size of the lobster. 12-15 minutes for 1 lb lobster, 15-20 minutes for a 1 1/2 pound lobster, 20-25 minutes for a 2-3 pound lobster. The lobsters should be a bright vivid red color when done.
