Why Make Grilled Lobster Kebabs?
Grilled Lobster Has So Much Flavor
Lobsters are one of those species that truly have endless possibilities when it comes to what you can make with them. Because I regularly get them, I often find myself trying to think of different ways to cook them. Over the years, I’ve made lobster tempura sushi rolls, lobster ramen, lobster spring rolls, Nashville hot lobster sandwiches, and so much more. Sometimes, though, I forget how simple is sometimes better, and that’s exactly what these grilled lobster kebabs reminded me of.
How I Got The Spiny Lobsters
Diving For Spiny Lobster In Florida
This particular time I was out diving with my good buddy, Eddie, off Fort Lauderdale. I had some friends, who were living on a sailboat at the time, also meet us out there to do some spearfishing. We ended up coming across some absolutely loaded ledges and everybody was able to take home a few. My buddy ended up losing his shaft to a big dog snapper this day, that I ended up finding over a month later! (The shaft, not the snapper).
The next day, my friends that lived on a sailboat, were kind enough to have me over for dinner to cook a couple of the tails we got the day before. We ended up making these delicious lobster kebabs on the grill they had on the back of the boat. While these may seem simple and basic, I promise they’re good! The best part is, you can literally mix and match so many different things on the skewers. Get creative and let me know what you come up with!
