Easy to Make, Delicious Lobster Rolls

Lobster rolls are one of my most favorite foods. So while on vacation in New England I just had to make some. Tender pieces of lobster, diced celery and chives bound with a little mayonnaise and a squeeze of lemon juice and placed into a buttery New England style bread roll... absolutely delicious !

Thank you as a new Maine resident!! I’m been trying to find lobster videos all weeks only to find out that my favorite chef on YouTube showed the best way to make them!

This is a decadent indulgence I can occasionally enjoy. I do not live in New England so I can't just pop round the corner for a lobster roll whenever I want. I DO live in Hawaii where they have an aquaculture farm that raises live Maine lobsters and sells them to the restaurants and public. Getting the bread right is the hard part but sometimes just a fluffy white bun and some butter lettuce works fine. We usually do this on New Years Day on the beach.

I get my lobster fix over at Lefty’s Lobster & Chowder House over on Belt Line Road in Addison (North Dallas)!

Wish I could be there with you eating those Lobster rolls. I only live a couple hundred miles from the New England coast and the price of lobster is over the top. I just can't afford it and haven't for a couple years now. Lobster was like a family tradition. My Dad was born in Maine. Oh the memories that lobster brings back. Family lobster boils with sweet corn and clams. Lobster rolls were the next day leftovers.

Missing Winston! Seriously a fabulous video presentation.
Loving the history, too.

Yum, but I do Connecticut style. Warm with butter on the butter toasted NE rolls

Lobster rolls are perfect summer dish 😊

Massachusetts girl here. The easiest way to take the meat out of the tail is to take the fins off the end and with your finger push the meat through that end and it will come out from the larger side. No cracking of the shell, it's much easier. Growing up I was taught to suck on the legs to get the little meat out of them and the juice which we still do to this day. The rolls are hot dog rolls here in New England. I've been told they are very hard to find elsewhere in the US. Best rolls ever. What I do instead of using butter to toast them is to spread mayo on each side of the roll and then toast on the grill. Just heaven. I use mayo on a grilled cheese sandwich too instead of butter. Also just an FYI, lobster fishermen call the lobsters, Bugs. Happy eating!!

Your tip about cutting the lemon lengthwise to avoid seeds just changed my life. LOL

My mouth is watering. I spent every summer in Rhode Island , well over 50 summers at my parents summer house and fresh lobster was a must along with clam chowder and clam cakes…. I absolutely love lobster!

YOUR THE GREATEST CHEF AND A MIRACLE Darren ❤

Hope you are well Darren having a good summer 😊

What a great background for preparing the lobster rolls! This is the way I like to eat them, too. Several years ago while staying in Florida, my friend and I dined on seafood almost every meal for a week. I'd like to travel to New England to do the same. Nothing like fresh fish/seafood. Thanks for sharing, Darren. Love the videos!

Next time I go to Whitby there’s a crab with my name on it and a packet of Walkers, do those names bring back memories buddy.

I love how Darren always educates us on the history of the dishes🥰

I love lobster! It looks so delicious. Thank you

I make this all of the time! I grew up in NY, and when we went to Maine when I was a child, I had my first one. Wonderful!! Moved to Cape Cod when I got older and learned the recipe. I had moved to IA and had my son fresh lobster, and lobster rolls were his favorite. Helps when you have friends who go lobstering and send me some overnight delivery. Yummy!! Thank you for actually doing a good recipe on them. 🙏💖🪶💯💯💯👏👏👏

Great video. I'm from Nova Scotia. I have friends and family that fish them. A tip for the walking legs, use a rolling pin or wine bottle to squeeze out the meat.

Yup that's how I remember Lobster rolls! Delish!! My first experience with Lobster was when a student teacher from Maine brought in lobsters and cooked them in our school cafeteria. What an experience for a farm girl from the upstate New York who had never seen a lobster.
It was a memory I will never forget, and it was DELISH!
