I've roasted them in the oven with an X cut into them.. but never 
knew it was supposed to be a the pointed end.  I'd recommend that you 
NOT roast all three pounds at once, they are much easier to shell 
when they are hot.  Start with a small batch and figure out the best 
method and how fast you can shell them.

To my mind the best thing would be to just eat them out of the shell 
while still hot.
