Throw it on the Grill For your Baller- Grilled Lobster Tail with Garlic Herb butter
- Rating: No Rating
Ladies I am going to spend most of my weekend by the grill and decided to share one of my favorite recipes for grilled lobster. I am also making steak, the cheese stuffed burgers ( which I posted previously check my archives for the recipe), ribs (jerk & bbq), beer can chicken, grilled corn on the cob grilled shrimp, grilled veggies, arugula salad, homemade strawberry lemonade and mojitos (pineapple & regular). Let me know if you are interested in any of the other recipes. Have a great Fourth of July Weekend & as always Bon Appetite!
Ingredients
1 stick salted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1 tablespoon chopped tarragon leaves
1 clove garlic, minced
Dash hot sauce
Freshly ground black pepper
4 (7-ounce) lobster tails
Olive oil
Kosher salt
Lemon wedges, for garnish
Chive sprigs
Directions
Special equipment: 4 metal skewers
Preheat your grill to direct medium-high heat.
In a small bowl blend butter, chives, tarragon, minced garlic, hot sauce, and black pepper with a rubber spatula. Blend thoroughly. Cover with plastic wrap and reserve.
Using kitchen shears, butterfly the lobster tails straight down the middle of the softer underside of the shell. Cut the meat down the center without cutting all the way through. Insert a metal skewer down the lobster tail so the tail stands straight. Brush the tails with olive oil and season with salt, to taste.
Grill lobsters cut side down over medium high heat about 5 minutes, until the shells are bright in color. Turn the tails over and spoon a generous tablespoon of herbed butter onto the butterflied meat. Grill for another 4 minutes, or until the lobster meat is an opaque white color.
Remove lobster tails from the grill and serve with more herb butter and lemon wedges. Garnish with chive sprigs.

I'm not big on Tyler Perry's work, but I did look at this as being different from his other productions. The ending alone is what stands out. Typical TP movies have a very happy ending, this one was "Good enough" to me.

Thanks for all the suggestion. She invited me over Friday to see what she had done so far and when I finally got there, she warmed the food up in the oven. Long story short, I got her a stainless steel microwave.
