If using top-sliced buns, spread softened butter on outsides; if using hamburger buns, butter insides. Heat a griddle or heavy skillet over moderately-high heat until hot and toast buns, buttered sides only, until light brown.

Divide lobster meat among buns and either drizzle melted butter over lobster or dollop with mayonnaise mixture.
