Steam live lobster with three cups of water, approximately eight minutes. Break lobster apart over pot and let all drippings drain into the water. Remove lobster meat over pot and set meat aside. Stir and reduce the lobster broth. In a separate pan, saute shallot in butter, add pepper then pour into broth. Next, add tomato soup and cream, then reduce. Chop lobster meat and add the chopped meat and sherry just prior to serving. Yields 4 to 6 servings.
