grilled lobster

Flame-cooked seafood delicacy

Grilled lobster is lobster cooked over an open flame or on a grill, typically split lengthwise and brushed with butter.

The high heat chars the shell and caramelizes the meat, producing a smoky flavor distinct from boiled or steamed preparations: We ordered the grilled lobster with garlic butter.
