Ingredients
- 6 New England style buns
- 3 fresh lobsters
- 2 baby gem lettuce washed and sliced finely
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 1 green apple, diced
- 1 tsp. Old Bay
- 4 bottles of IPA
- 1 onion, peeled and chopped
- Water
- Salt and pepper
Preparations
In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, bring beer and chopped onions to a boil. Add the lobsters head first into the pot and cover. Return beer to a low-boil and steam lobsters for approximately 7-8 minutes per pound. Lobsters will be bright red when done. Remove lobsters and put them in ice water. Remove the meat and cut into bit sized pieces.
In a separate bowl, combine celery, apples, mayonnaise, Old Bay, and lemon juice. Slowly add in lobster until combined.
To Assemble: Toast the New England style buns (with butter if desired). Layer with a lettuce leaf and top with lobster mixture (sprinkle with celery salt if desired).
