Ingredients
- 2 pieces lobster tails fresh, about 6-8 ounces each
- 1/4 cup melted butter unsalted recommended
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed

Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper.

- Remove from the grill, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately with extra lemon wedges on the side.

This was absolute heaven! The garlic butter really made it pop. Definitely doing this again.
I dunno, tastes kinda fishy for lobsters, I think I overcooked it 😕. Not sure if I will try again.
