Lobster Rolls

Traditional New England Style:

INGREDIENTS

Cooked Lobster approximately 1 pound lobster per person 

New England Style Hot Dog Roll 
 

PREPARATION 

Clean the lobster meat from the shell and place aside: 

The Claws and Knuckles 

Twist the claws right off the body.  Use a cracker and a fork to remove the meat from the claws and knuckles.  A lot of juice will be inside, which some people love to drink straight from the claw before cracking it open, or just drain into a bowl. 

The Lobster Tail

Twist the tail off the body.   Squeeze the tail and it should crack down the middle, which will make it easier to use your fork and remove the meat.  Remove the black vein that runs down the middle of the tail.  Easiest way is once the tail meat is removed from the shell, peel back the thin strip of meat on the top and the black vein will be in there and should pull right out.  You may have to get a little messy here.  Tip: There is meat in the flippers of the tail as well! 

Gently with your hands break up the pieces into small chunks.  Lightly mix about 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise, or to taste, per one pound of lobster.  Gently place the lobster/mayo mix into the hot dog roll.   ENJOY!

Open the toasted hot dog roll and place the broken up lobster meat into the roll.  Pour the melted butter over the lobster meat in the roll. Get a lot of napkins ready and enjoy!!!
