Ingredients

• 1 3/4 lb whole lobster (can use 4 lobster tails or 1 lb lobster meat)
• 1 tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp diced chives
• 1/2 tbsp minced parsley
• 2 tbsp diced celery
• salt
• fresh cracked black pepper
• 2 hot dog buns or hoagie rolls
• 1 tbsp salted butter melted

Directions

1. Cooking The Lobster:

2. Bring a large pot of water to boil. Make sure you will be able to fit the lobsters to be completely covered with water. Season with about 2 tbsp of coarse salt and 1 tbsp of whole peppercorns. Lower the heat to medium so the water doesn’t over-boil all over the stove.

3. Submerge lobster into the water and close the lid. (Leave a crack to let steam escape.) Let lobster cook for about 16 minutes, until it’s bright red.

4. Take lobster out using metal tongues that are preferable coated with silicone. Cooked lobster is slippery.

5. Making Lobster Rolls

6. Chop lobster meat into small pieces and place it into a mixing bowl.

7. Squeeze in lemon juice, add mayonnaise, diced celery, diced chives and parsley, and a little salt and pepper. Mix everything together and set aside.

8. Preheat the oven broiler on low and brush hot dog buns with melted butter. Pull them apart very gently and brush some butter on the inside as well.

9. Place buttered buns on a baking sheet and let them brown under the broiler. Don’t place it too close to the broiler so the buns don’t burn.

10. Divide lobster salad evenly among the warm rolls.
