1
Prepare the Lobster
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the lobster and cook for about 8-10 minutes until bright red. Remove lobster and let it cool before extracting the meat.
2
Butter Poaching
In a skillet, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, add the lobster meat and gently poach for about 5 minutes until warm. Stir in the lemon juice, chopped celery, salt, and black pepper to taste.
3
Toast the Buns
While the lobster is poaching, preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Toast the New England buns until golden brown on both sides.
4
Assemble the Lobster Rolls
Once the lobster is ready, divide the mixture among the toasted buns. Serve with fresh lemon wedges on the side.
