👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Carefully split the live lobster lengthwise with a sharp knife, from head to tail. Remove the tomalley (green matter) and intestines, leaving the roe (red matter) if present.
2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Melt butter in a small saucepan, then stir in minced garlic and chopped fresh parsley. Season with salt and black pepper.
3. Brush the lobster meat generously with the garlic butter mixture. Place the lobster halves, meat-side down, on the hot grill. Grill for 5-7 minutes until the shells turn bright red.
4. Flip the lobster halves, brush with more garlic butter, and grill for another 3-5 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook, as it can make the lobster tough.
5. Remove the grilled lobster from the grill, drizzle with any remaining garlic butter, and garnish with fresh lemon wedges and extra parsley. Serve immediately.
