🦞 Grill the Perfect Lobster Tails

This week, we’re taking your grill game to the next level with something that will make the neighbors jealous — perfectly grilled lobster tails. Sweet, smoky, buttery perfection… and easier than you think.

🔥 How to Grill the Perfect Lobster Tails
You’ll Need:

  • Lobster tails (4–6 oz each)
  • Kitchen shears
  • melted butter
  • Fresh garlic (optional)
  • Lemon wedges
  • Salt & pepper
  • Fresh herbs like parsley (optional)


Step 1 – Prep & Butterfly

  • Cut the top shell lengthwise with kitchen shears.
  • Gently pull the shell apart and lift the meat to rest on top.
  • Brush with melted butter, season with salt, pepper, and optional garlic or paprika.

Step 2 – Heat the Grill

  • Medium-high heat (375–400°F).

Step 3 – Grill

  • Meat-side down: 4–5 min to sear.
  • Flip, shell-side down: 3–5 min until meat is opaque & firm.
  • Baste with garlic butter while grilling for extra flavor.

Step 4 – Serve

  • Squeeze lemon over the top, garnish with parsley, and serve immediately.


🧈 Bonus Tip: Butter Dip Sauce
Melt salted butter with a splash of lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a dash of garlic powder. Optional: Add parsley or cayenne for flair. Perfect for dunking every decadent bite.

🍋 Chef’s Notes:

  • Use real butter for the best flavor.
  • Avoid overcooking—lobster turns tough fast.
  • For a smoky twist, toss a handful of applewood or cherry wood chips on the grill.​
