Ingredients
Directions
- 1
Place a lobster tail on a cutting board, shell side up with the tail facing away from you. Use a pair of kitchen shears to snip the shell in half. Stop snipping at the tail. Then take a sharp knife and trace that line, cutting the meat as you go.

Once you have snipped and cut, open the lobster tail up like a book, laying it flat on its back. Rinse the shell in a bowl of cold water to remove any shell fragments and repeat with other tails.

Once you have rinsed the tails, pat them dry with a paper towel, then season the meat with salt and pepper and brush with vegetable oil.

Preheat a grill to 350ºF and set up for direct grilling. Place the meat side of the lobster directly on the grill and cook for 7 minutes. Flip once and cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the meat is white and the shell turns red.
