Ingredients
Filling:
| 6 cups | Freshly cooked lobster meat, cut into large pieces, chilled |
| 1 cup | Mayo |
| 1 cup | Celery, diced small |
| 1/2 cup | Red onion, diced small |
| 3 tbsp | Pommery (whole grain) mustard |
| 1 tbsp | Dijon mustard |
| 3 tbsp | Fresh tarragon, chopped |
| 3 tbsp | Green onion, chopped |
| 1 | Lemon, zested and juiced |
| Salt | To taste |
Rolls:
| 6 | Sub rolls OR sausage buns |
| 3 tbsp | Butter, melted |
Directions
Makes: 6 rolls
- In a large bowl mix all ingredients together, excluding the lobster. When all ingredients are mixed thoroughly, gently fold in the cooled, cooked lobster meat being careful not to overwork the mixture. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Preheat a barbecue. Brush buns with melted butter and place on grill upside down – buns will grill quickly so keep a close watch! Rotate to get grill marks on both sides.
NOTE: Another option is toasting the buns in the oven, or open in a pan with butter - Remove lobster mixture from fridge and spoon equal amounts of filling into the freshly toasted rolls. Enjoy!
