Grilled Lobster Tails

For those of you that shop at Albertson's, they run a special once in a while on the small lobster tails for like $4.50 each or something. More often, they have them on sale for like $8.00/tail, but either way, it's a smokin' deal if all you want is a little taste of heaven.

I had never grilled lobster before, and it was easiest, and yummier, than I expected.

Grilled Lobster Tails
1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp ground pepper (black or white) 
4 small lobster tails

Mix lemon juice, olive oil, garlic salt, paprika, and pepper in a bowl. Using sharp knife, split lobster tail down the middle, leaving connected the two very ends. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Using basting brush, brush marinade onto flesh-side of lobster. Grill flesh-side down for 5-6 minutes, turn, grill additional 4-5 minutes. Baste again with mixture, then turn once more and grill for 3-4 minutes. Serve immediately. Discard remaining marinade.
