1

Cooking the Lobster

Fill a large pot with plenty of water and bring it to a boil. Add some salt to enhance the flavor. Carefully place the live lobsters in the pot, head first. You might want to wear gloves to avoid any unexpected pinches! Cook the lobsters for about 8-10 minutes per pound until the shells turn bright red. Once cooked, remove the lobsters from the pot and let them cool.

2

Cracking the Shells

Once the lobsters have cooled, it's time to crack those shells! Twist off the claws and crack them with a lobster cracker or a nutcracker. Carefully remove the meat from the claws and set it aside. Next, break off the tail by twisting it away from the body. Remove the meat from the tail and chop it into bite-sized pieces. Don't forget to save any juicy lobster tomalley and roe for extra flavor!

3

Mixing the Salad

In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, chopped celery, chopped green onions, salt, and pepper. Stir until the ingredients are well-blended. Add the chopped lobster meat to the bowl and gently mix it with the dressing until all the meat is coated. Taste and adjust the seasonings according to your preference.

4

Chilling and Serving

Cover the lobster salad with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. When you're ready to serve, take a fresh buttered and toasted roll, line it with lettuce, and generously fill it with the chilled lobster salad. Voila! Your mouthwatering Lobster Roll is now complete!
