    Chunks of sweet lobster meat tossed lightly in mayonnaise and piled into a buttered, toasted split-top bun.

    Summer in a hot dog bun

    Simple, honest, and perfect: cold sweet lobster, a whisper of mayo, and a toasted, butter-soaked New England-style bun.

    Step by stepInstructions

    1. Gently toss the lobster with the mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery, chives, salt, and pepper. Chill briefly.
    2. Butter the outside of each split-top bun and toast in a buttered skillet until golden on both sides.
    3. Line each bun with lettuce, pile in the lobster salad, and serve immediately with chips.

    💡 Chef tips & storage

    Less is more — barely coat the lobster in mayo so the sweet meat stays the star. Some purists skip the celery; the choice is yours.
