Ingredients

  • 3/4 pound lobster meat cooked/steamed (I used two 1 1/2 pound whole Maine lobsters that I steamed using the meat from the tails, knuckles, and claws)
  • 1 green onion chopped
  • 1 celery stalk chopped
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 lemon (use half the lemon for juice and the other half for garnish)
  • 3 Tablespoons butter (2 Tablespoons for the lobster and 1/2 Tablespoon for each roll)
  • 2 hot dog buns New England type hot dog buns/Country Kitchen Frankfurter Split-Top Rolls
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Lobster Meat

    Melt 2 Tablespoons of butter in a pan over medium heat. Add lobster meat and stir over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Place warmed meat in a large or medium mixing bowl. Add green onions, celery, juice from half a lemon, salt, pepper and mayonnaise and stir to combine all ingredients together.

  2. Prepare Rolls

    Melt 1/2 Tablespoon of butter for each roll in a pan over medium heat. Slice roll on top-center. Place roll in melted butter in pan and toast on both sides of the roll for about 2-minutes or until lightly golden brown (just the sides, not the top or bottom). Remove bun from pan and wipe excess butter from pan using a paper towel. Do this step for each roll.

  3. Serving Lobster Roll

    Scoop lobster mixture into sliced hot dog buns. Serve cold or warm with potato chips and a slice of lemon. Enjoy!
