Instructions

Prepare the Lobster

Immerse the lobster in a large pot of boiling water for 5 minutes, then remove it and let it cool.

Pro tip: Use a sharp knife to easily cut the lobster in half.

Prepare the Marinade

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

Pro tip: Marinating the lobster adds depth of flavor.

Marinate the Lobster

Brush the mixture onto the lobster halves and let marinate for 15 minutes.

Pro tip: The longer you marinate, the more intense the flavors become.

Prepare the Maple Miso Butter

Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, then stir in the maple syrup, miso paste, garlic, and ginger.

Pro tip: Do not let the mixture boil to avoid burning the miso.

Grill the Lobster

Preheat your BBQ to medium heat. Place the lobster halves on the grill, flesh side down, and grill for 5 to 7 minutes.

Pro tip: Keep an eye on the lobster to prevent burning.

Add the Butter

At the end of cooking, generously brush the lobster with the maple miso butter.

Pro tip: Add butter gradually for an even richer flavor.

Serve

Serve hot, garnished with chopped chives, with lemon wedges.
