Place the remaining butter on a sheet of parchment and roll into a log, twisting the ends to seal. Refrigerate for another use. To prepare the lobsters, bring a large pot of water to a rapid boil. Place the lobsters in the boiling water and blanch just until the shells turn red, but the meat is not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove the lobsters and let cool slightly. Slice the lobsters in half lengthwise. Brush the meat and inside of the lobsters with some of the herbed butter, about 1 T. per lobster half. Place the lobsters on the grill, flesh side down and cook until the meat has grill marks and starts to turn opaque and firm up, about 5 minutes. Turn the lobsters over and grill an additional 3 to 4 minutes, brushing with more butter, if desired. Remove the lobsters to a large platter. If desired, serve with some of the reserved herbed butter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1\/2 pound unsalted butter, room temperature 4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped 1\/2 red or green jalapeno, seeds and white membranes removed, chopped coarsely 1\/4 C. coarsely chopped parsley (we used basil) Zest and juice of 1\/2 lemon 2 T. chopped chives Salt and freshly ground black pepper Live lobsters In a food processor, combine the butter, garlic, jalapeno, parsley, lemon zest and juice, and chives.
