GRILLED LOBSTER SMOTHERED IN BASIL BUTTER
Steps:
- Combine the butter, basil, and salt and pepper to taste in a food processor and blend until smooth. Pack the mixture into a medium ramekin, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Split the lobsters in half lengthwise. Bring the knife down through the tail, making sure to cut just through the meat and to leave the shell connected. Lay the lobster open, leaving the two halves slightly attached. Pull off claws and legs from the lobsters and crack them slightly with the knife handle. Place the claws and legs on the grill over medium-low heat and cover with a pie pan. Cook them for 5 to 7 minutes per side. Brush the lobster bodies with the oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Place them fleshside down on the grill over medium heat. Grill 8 to 10 minutes
- Remove the lobsters and slather with the basil butter.
GRILLED LOBSTER AND POTATOES WITH BASIL VINAIGRETTE
Some of us prefer the taste of grilled lobster to boiled. The smokiness of the fire balances the richness of the meat while simultaneously intensifying its flavor.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Put the oil in a wide skillet and turn the heat to medium-high. Add the potatoes and sprinkling of salt and pepper and proceed to brown them on all sides, slowly and carefully, adjusting the heat as necessary.
- Meanwhile, boil the lobsters for 2 minutes, then plunge them (reserve the water) into an ice-water bath. Break off the claws and remove the meat from them; break off the tails and cut each into three or four sections, leaving the shell on. Take all remaining parts of the lobster, return them to the boiling water, and simmer, covered, for about an hour.
- Add the butter to the (hopefully now nearly perfectly browned) potatoes. Raise the heat to fairly high, add the lobster pieces as well, and brown lightly, turning once or twice. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring once or twice, to heat through. Stir in the basil leaves, taste and adjust seasoning, and serve.

Steps:
- Put the water, peppercorns, salt, thyme, bay leaves and pepper flakes in a kettle large enough to hold the lobsters. Cover and bring to a boil.
- Add the lobsters quickly, one at a time, and cover. When the water returns to a boil, cook the lobsters for 10 minutes and drain thoroughly. When the lobsters are cool enough to handle, break off the tails and remove the meat from each in one piece. Crack the large claws and remove the meat from each in one piece. Remove the meat from the remaining claw shells. Put all the meat in a bowl.
- Stack the basil leaves and cut them into fine shreds. There should be about 1/2 cup. Add to the bowl.
- Put the olive oil, shallots, vinegar and salt in a small mixing bowl and toss to blend well.
- To serve, cut each piece of tail meat on the bias into 1/2-inch-thick medallions. Reassemble the slices from one lobster tail on a plate. Arrange two of the large pieces of claw meat at the top of the tail meat to resemble a lobster shape. Spoon about a quarter of the sauce over the tail and claw meat. Scatter a quarter of the small pieces of lobster meat around. Garnish each side of the tail meat with a quarter of the recipe for three-salad chiffonade. Repeat with the remaining lobster meat and three-salad chiffonade.
