1
Cook the Lobster
If using live lobster, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobsters and cook for 8-10 minutes until they turn bright red. Remove them from the pot and let cool. Once cooled, remove the meat from the shell and chop into bite-sized pieces.
2
Prepare the Drawn Butter
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat until fully melted. Keep warm but do not let it boil.
3
Combine Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, gently toss the lobster meat with half of the drawn butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.

4
Toast the Brioche Rolls
Butter the outside of each brioche roll and toast them on a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy.
5
Assemble the Rolls
Place a generous amount of shredded lettuce inside each toasted brioche roll. Top with the lobster mixture and drizzle with additional drawn butter before serving.
