Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    If using whole lobsters, steam or boil them until cooked, about 10-12 minutes. Remove the meat, chop into bite-sized pieces, and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Lobster Mixture

    In a bowl, combine the lobster meat, mayonnaise, chopped celery, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until combined.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Rolls

    Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Lightly toast the hot dog buns or lobster rolls in the skillet until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Rolls

    Spoon the lobster mixture generously into the toasted rolls. Drizzle with remaining melted butter and garnish with chopped parsley.
