Instant Pot Lobster Rolls

Creator and Admin of Instant Pot 101 for Beginners on Facebook.

2 lbs of Fresh Cold Water/Maine Lobster Tails - raw, thawed and in shell (I got mine at Costco as they are GREAT and are usually a pound per tail. Also, take note that this is the weight of the lobster meat INCLUDING the shell before cooking so the cooked and removed meat will be about half that)

1.5 cups of Chicken Broth (1 heaping tsp of Chicken Better Than Bouillon 1 cup of water)

2 to 3 scallions, chopped

½ cup of mayonnaise

4 tbsp (½ stick) of unsalted butter, halved and melted

1 lemon, halved

¼ tsp of celery salt

1 tsp of Old Bay seasoning (plus a few shakes for the broth)

Hot Dog buns (preferably top sliced ones - Pepperidge Farm makes them)

* NOTE: Do NOT put a live lobster in an Instant Pot. They will die a slow death since the water takes a few moments to boil up to come to pressure as opposed to being tossed into already boiling water on the stove where they go to Lobster Heaven in seconds. If you REALLY want to have claw meat, you can either boil them on the stove OR do the dirty deed before you throw it in the Instant Pot with this method (Spoiler Alert!: It’s not pleasant to watch and it takes a lot of work with body parts still moving after separation…soooooo…I suggest you just use fresh tails) note: NOTE: Do NOT put a live lobster in an Instant Pot.
