Ingredients
-
Lane’s Blackening Rub
-
4 large lobster tails
-
½ pound of crawfish tail meat
-
1 medium onion, chopped
-
1 bell pepper, chopped
-
1 stick of butter
-
1 sleeve of crackers, crushed fine (we used Ritz)
-
grated parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
Preheat grill to 325°F
In a skillet, saute onions and peppers until softened and slightly charred. Season the veggies generously with Blackening rub while cooking.
Add butter to skillet when the onions and peppers are almost done. Set aside to cool down.
Split the lobster tails down the middle lengthwise, not cutting all the way through. Using your fingers or a butter knife, split the tail open enough to expose the tail meat and leave an area large enough to stuff.
Mix the crawfish and crushed crackers with the onion, bell pepper, and butter mixture, then stuff into the lobster tails.
Grill lobster tails for 10-15 minutes or until an internal temp of 140°F is reached. In the last few minutes of cooking, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and more Blackening rub.
Serve with fresh lemon and Sorta White sauce!
Recipe Note
- Use crab meat or chopped, cooked shrimp if you can't find crawfish near you
- Q-Nami, Garlic2, Signature, and Nashville Hot are all great rub options if you don't have Blackening
