Ummm???Larry Wolfe said:DO NOT SMOKE THE LOBSTER TAIL. Split it down the middle, expose the meat, little evoo, s&p and grill it quick. You want it almost medium rare. Keep natures goodness simple.
boar_d_laze said:Oh yeah, right. I forgot shellfish doesn't smoke well. Neither does any sweet seafood. Smoke obscures the flavors of delicate white fishes like halibut, sturgeon and trout. We all know how lousy they smoke. And never cook fish on a live wood fire either. Charcoal only, or it might get too much smoke.

Not trying to sound like too much of an asshole here, but you can actually cold smoke virtually any type of shellfish/fish and with just a simple glaze come out with great results. Smoked Oysters are a good example. With have saying all of that, I would take grilled lobster over smoked lobster any day and yours looks fantastic.

A person can smoke a big old wet chunk of giant squid in one of them puppies..or seems like somebody hear Pig's say that one time..or something similar to that. Now my old yankee acquaintance who served Lobster in his restaurant always cook it in the microwave oven. Fine looking mess of crustaceans Buck.
