Recipe View Serve Immediately: Remove the lobster tails from the grill and serve immediately. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the marinade.
Ensure your grill grates are clean for optimal searing.
Avoid overcooking the lobster, as it can become tough. Look for a firm, opaque texture as an indicator of doneness.
Serve with a crisp white wine or a light, summery salad for a complete meal.
