Lobster
- 4 raw lobster tails, shells on
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1/4 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- Kitchen scissors
- Heat a smoker to 325 F.
- Using kitchen scissors, cut down the middle of the top of the lobster tails until they are nearly split.
- Pull the shell apart until the meat is exposed.
- Place in a bowl and season the tails with the olive oil, salt, and pepper; toss to coat.
- Place the lobster tails in a large aluminum pan, place the pan in the smoker, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the meat turns completely white and the tails begin to curl up tightly.
- Meanwhile, prepare the salad: In a medium bowl, stir the mayonnaise and lemon juice together until blended.
- Then add the celery and lettuce, and toss.
- Set aside.
- Remove the lobster tails from the smoker.
- Do not let the tails cool completely or the meat will become tough.
- Serve immediately with the melted butter for drizzling and the salad on the side.
