Maine Lobster Roll

Mimi in Maine's Note:

If you want an authentic Maine Lobster Roll, all you will have in it is lobster and a just a tad of mayonnaise. Nothing else. Other things may be good and have them if you like, but a Maine one is maine-ly lobster. You may put it on any roll you like, but I generally use a hotdog type roll with the slit on top. A homemade hotdog roll would be wonderful. I always have the pieces pretty good sized so you can see the claw and pieces of the tail. Yummy!!!

• Total Time: 30 mins
• Prep Time: 30 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 1

• 1 lobster (cooked and picked)
• ½-1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• 1 hot dog bun , with slit on top

Directions:

1. Boil the lobster for about 16-18 minutes.
2. Pick apart and cut up in good-sized pieces.
3. Put the mayonnaise on and mix.
4. I usually put a little butter on the sides of the roll and place it on the griddle for a couple of minutes to brown it.
5. Fill it and enjoy.
6. NOTE: I figure one lobster per roll which would be about 3-5 ounces of meat; this should make a stuffed lobster roll.

I made these again yesterday and took a picture this time! I add celery and used my recipe for Recipe #251957 for the roll. They are DELISH! Thanks for sharing! Linda

I made my lobster lunch exactly like you do Mimi, love it!! Our local bakery makes hot dog and hamburger buns with the same dough, I prefer using hamburger buns; I find it easier to eat without losing all the filling!! I added some fresh ground black pepper to the sandwich and did not grill it. Yummy!!
