5 minute read | Holiday
This holiday season is the perfect time to impress your guests with a special and delicious meal. One standout dish that always gets rave reviews is grilled lobster tail. While you can boil or bake it, grilling gives it a smoky flavor and a perfect texture. Here are five essential tips to help you grill lobster tails like a pro this season.
Keep It Simple
Grilled lobster tail doesn’t need a complicated recipe to be amazing. The key is to let the natural sweetness of the lobster shine through. Before grilling, brush the tails with olive oil and a little salt. Once they’re cooked, serve them with a flavorful butter sauce. A great option is to mix melted butter with garlic, tarragon, black pepper, and a dash of hot sauce. This will elevate the taste without overpowering the lobster.
Control the Heat
One common mistake when grilling lobster tail is using too high of a heat. Set your gas grill to medium heat and let it preheat for about ten minutes. Medium heat ensures the lobster cooks evenly without becoming rubbery. Avoid flipping the tails too early; wait until the shell starts turning pink before turning them over.
Cut It Open
To ensure even cooking, butterfly the lobster tails by cutting down the middle of the softer side of the shell. This allows the heat to reach all parts of the tail more effectively. It also helps the seasoning and butter penetrate better, making each bite more flavorful.
Grill with Care
Before placing the lobster tails on the grill, make sure they’re well-oiled and seasoned. Put them on the grill cut-side down. As they cook, the shell will start to turn bright pink, signaling that it's time to flip them. Cook for about 8–10 minutes total, depending on the size. Be careful not to overcook, as this can make the meat tough.
Serve Fresh and Satisfying
Once the lobster tails are done, serve them immediately while they're still warm. Pair them with a fresh salad and lemon wedges for a complete meal. A chilled glass of chardonnay makes a great wine pairing. Don’t forget to offer the herb-butter mixture on the side so everyone can enjoy it to their liking.
