Garlicy Barbequed Lobster Tails

One of my favorite things to do in life is to go have a nice meal at a great restaurant with friends or family. And of course, it’s extra nice to have a delicious meal cooked by someone else with my love.

But you couldn’t pay me money to go out and eat at a restaurant on Valentine’s Day. Don’t get me wrong, it is my absolute favorite holiday, but you should be in bed with your love on this special day of love.

So instead of going out to dinner, Wes and I barbeque lobster tails. It may only be two years old, but it’s our little tradition.

And it is a freaking delicious one.

You can make it for something special, or just because you want something awesome.

You will need…

2 lobster tails


6 cloves garlic, minced


4 tablespoons butter (good herb butter if you can find it or want to make one yourself)


2 lemons


Salt and pepper to taste

Start by preheating your grill to a medium heat.

Then in a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic and the juice of one of the lemons.

Microwave the butter, garlic and lemon juice just until the butter is completely melted. About 45 seconds.


Split the lobster tails down the back and spread apart the shell.

Using a brush or spoon, baste the lobster tail with the butter sauce and place a skewer through the tail so that it won’t curl up on the barbeque.


Place the tails on the barbeque and cook with the lid on for about 15-20 minutes. Baste the tails every 5 minutes.


Cook until just cooked through.

Serve hot with half a lemon.
