I grill lobster with tremendous results:
-Take live lobsters and rip off tails (please don't call PETA on me)
-Rip off claws
-Rip off legs
-Discard body unless you are into making stock or something
At this point I am keeping everything in a cooler of ice
cut tails in half legthwise with a very sharp knife. I use serrated for this with a sawing action. Rinse tail halves under cold water, return to ice.
Melt butter. If doing 10 lobsters I would use 3 sticks. Add some old bay, some black pepper, juice of a lemon.
toss tails in this sauce. butter will start to congeal. continue to toss and also push congealled butter ito the shell/meat cavity.
allow to sit in fridge for an hour
Get grill hot. I mean wicked hot. Like surface of the sun hot.
place tails meat side down on rediculously hot grill suface. If flames aren't shootig up and all hell breaking loose, your grill is not hot enought. Have tongs ready.1 minute maybe a little more. Once they start to turn color and curl up a little, flip. 1 minute more. Remove. QUICK. YOU WILL RUIN THEM IF YOU GO LONGER. Don't be afraid of undercooking.
Serve.
With claws and legs I boil and make lobster sallad. I will not give that recipe out.
