Grilled Maine Lobster Tail
Red Lobster’s Grilled Maine Lobster Tail is a mouthwatering dish featuring a tender lobster tail grilled to perfection and served with butter for dipping.
It’s available as part of various meal combinations or as a standalone entrée.
How do you grill lobster tails without overcooking them?
To avoid overcooking, grill the lobster tails until the meat is opaque and reaches an internal temperature of 135–140°F. Flip them halfway through cooking for even heat distribution.
What is the best way to season lobster tails for grilling?
Brush the lobster meat with melted butter or olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic, or herbs like parsley or paprika for added flavor.
Can you grill frozen lobster tails directly?
No, it’s best to thaw frozen lobster tails first by refrigerating them overnight or placing them in cold water for faster defrosting.
What’s the difference between grilling and broiling lobster tails?
Grilling gives a smoky, charred flavor, while broiling cooks the lobster in an oven under high heat, creating a caramelized crust on top.
Do you need to butterfly lobster tails before grilling?
Yes, butterflying (cutting through the shell and exposing the meat) helps the lobster cook evenly and allows for better seasoning absorption.
What sides pair well with grilled lobster tails?
Popular sides include garlic butter rice, roasted asparagus, baked potatoes, or a fresh garden salad.
Can you cook lobster tails on a gas or charcoal grill?
Yes! Both methods work well. Gas grills provide consistent heat, while charcoal grills add a smoky flavor to the lobster.
