Content: Remove the lobster from the pot and place it on its back. Preheat the grill to a medium - hot heat. Take a sharp knife and cut the lobster down the middle. Remove the black vein that runs down the tail, the green tomalley and the sand sac, which is located in the head area, behind the eyes. Baste the lobster meat with melted butter and lemon juice (optional) and place under the preheated grill, shell-side down for around 8 - 10 minutes or until the lobster meat is thoroughly cooked. Serve immediately. How to tell when your lobster is cooked
Care must be taken not to overcook the lobster, as this will result in tougher and less succulent meat. Overcooking also means that some of the delicious flavour will be lost and the meat may shrink, become stringy or even mushy. Do not remove the lobster from the pot before the shell has turned bright red. The lobster is properly done when an antennae comes off easily when pulled gently.
