LOBSTER GRILLED CHEESE
How do you take an ordinary grilled cheese sandwich and turn the flavor volume up to eleven? Simple: just add lobster. The contrast between our fresh, rich, buttery, fluffy, sweet lobster meat and melty, slightly tangy sharp cheddar (not to mention crunchy, salty buttery bread) is a beautiful thing. Think of it as a Down East twist on a classic that allows you to get more mileage out of your lobster meat-this recipe yields four generous sandwiches, and if you add a cold, crisp pickle spear and some potato chips, you have a meal that will satisfy and delight a group of hungry foodies. To save time, order your lobster pre cooked and de-shelled, bibs optional!

Steps:
- Make Luke's special seasoning: In a small bowl, combine all the seasoning ingredients. Set aside.
- Make the grilled cheese: In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Place the pieces of bread next to each other, pushing them around the pan lightly to evenly coat them with butter.
- Top each piece of bread with 1½ slices of the Gruyère cheese and sprinkle one slice with the pinch of Luke's special seasoning, then cover the pan and cook until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove the lid and spread the lobster meat over the melted cheese on one piece of the toasted bread. Flip the other on top to sandwich and make the grill cheese. Let cook until the lobster is warmed through, 1 minute more.
- Transfer to a plate and serve.
LOBSTER GRILLED CHEESE
This unique recipe, created by chef Billy Grant, was named one of the top sandwiches in America by Esquire magazine. Billy suggests serving it with onion rings, local corn, and a green salad. This also makes a great appetizer, just cut into 1" squares and secure w/ a party-pick. If you need to substitute the cheese, I would consider fontina or anything you like that isn't too sharp. Enjoy!

Tips:
- For the best grilled cheese sandwich, use a thick, sturdy bread that can hold up to the fillings. Sourdough, French bread, and Texas toast are all good choices.
- Spread mayonnaise or butter on the outside of the bread before grilling. This will help the bread to brown evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Use a generous amount of cheese. The cheese is the star of the show in a grilled cheese sandwich, so don't be shy with it.
- Add your favorite fillings to the sandwich. Lobster, bacon, avocado, and tomato are all popular choices.
- Grill the sandwich over medium heat until the cheese is melted and gooey and the bread is golden brown. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the sandwiches will not cook evenly.
- Serve the grilled cheese sandwich immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
