Recipe 1

Ingredients

2 Lobster Tails
4 tbsp Butter
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt
Pepper

In the meantime, make the basting sauce. For this, take a small pan and place it on heat. Now, add some butter to it and melt the same. Once the butter gets melted, remove the pan from heat and add minced garlic to it. Add lemon juice to the above mixture and stir properly.
When the lobster comes back to room temperature, start by cutting it lengthwise, to expose the meat.
Now, using a brush, thoroughly baste the flesh side of the tails with the butter mixture
For grilling, clean and grease the grill with oil and set it to medium heat.
When the grill is hot, give the lobster tails one last baste, add a bit of salt and pepper and place them on it, flesh-side down.
Cook the tails flesh-down for about 4 to 5 minutes, until light grill-marks show. Now, flip the lobster tails to grill the shell side.
Baste with the butter mixture several times during the next 3 to 6 minutes, until the lobster meat is firm and opaque.
