How to make Dr. BBQ's Lobster with Chilli-Lime Butter

Prepare the grill for cooking over direct medium heat. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and blend in the lime juice, chilli powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

Split the lobsters completely in half down the back with a chef's knife. Remove the tails and claws. Discard the rest. Crack the shells on the claws and inject or drizzle them each with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Season the tails lightly with the rub. Grill the tails and claws for about 5 minutes on each side. Spoon some of the Chilli-Lime Butter into the tail shells. Cook until the lobster is just barely done, another 4 to 5 minutes. This will vary depending on your grill. Serve the remaining Chilli-Lime Butter for dipping.
