LOBSTER TAILS ON THE GRILL

Category: Seafood and Fish - Grilled

1/2 cup butter
4 cloves of fresh pressed garlic
Dash white pepper
Lemon wedges.

Thaw tails before cooking and then parboil them for 2-3 minutes and cool. Split the back shell to butterfly with kitchen scissors or a sharp knife, being careful not to cut them in half.

Combine butter with garlic and pepper and brush on tails. Place lobster tails, shell down, on medium high barbecue grill and cook until shells turn red - about 6-8 minutes (depending on size). Brush tails with butter again if desired.

(Option: You can also run metal skewer through the tails to prevent them from curling.) BE CAREFUL not to overcook. Just like steak, if you under cook them, you can always put them back on. Lobster is done when opaque in color and firm to the touch. Garnish with lemon wedges.
