Preparation

In a large saucepan filled with boiling salted water, cook the lobsters for 4 minutes. Remove from the water, rinse thoroughly under cold water and allow to drain for 5 minutes. Cut in half lengthwise.
In a bowl, put the vinaigrette and butter, season with salt and pepper and mix. Set aside.
Preheat the BBQ to maximum power and reduce to medium power. Oil the grates.
Place the lobsters on the grates, flesh side up, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Generously brush the flesh with the butter. Flip the lobsters and continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, let cool for 5 minutes and remove the flesh from the carcasses. Roughly chop and put in a salad bowl.
Add the rest of the salad ingredients, season with salt and pepper and mix. Fill the loaves and devour!

Les Vins Pirouettes Tutti Frutti 2020

Alsace, France

Les Vins Pirouettes Tutti Frutti is a fruity, lively white from Alsace, a blend of riesling, sylvaner and a couple of pinots that keeps things fresh. That zing does the job of the lemon wedge on the lobster and lightens the mayo and the buttery brioche bun. Perfect for the first lobster roll of summer, out on a patio. See the product

Le Trèfle Noir

A guédille is lobster, mayonnaise and buttered bread. The salty acidity of a gose cuts the mayonnaise and brings the shellfish forward. Its citrus follows the lime and the herbs in the dressing, and the whole thing stays light enough to eat two. See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
