Grilled Lobster Tail

By Jan_C

Grilling or broiling lobster is a great way to get that smokey, slightly crisp texture on the lobster meat.

Ingredients

• Lobster
• Butter
• Lemon

Preparation

Step 1

Insert a long metal skewer lengthwise in each tail to keep it from curling. Then we recommend parboiling before grilling. Drop the tails in a pot of boiling water. When the water returns to a soft boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 2 minutes. Remove the tails from the water.

Lay the tails on their backside, with the soft underneath side of the shell facing up. Take a knife and cut through the shell lengthwise down the middle. Prying the shell open (crack it if needed) pour melted butter and squeeze lemon juice right into the meat. Grill with the cut side facing up, at medium-high heat, or broil on high for 2-3 minutes or just until done.
