Made this tonight. They were delicious. Thanks Jeff!!
Very good and easy to make. My kids loved them as wrll as the adults.
Great show and recipe. The lobster rolls looked so good that I had to try it immediately. Since shrimp was in the frig I did a little substituting. It was amazing. I will definitely be using lobster the next time.
I Love Jeff Mauro! He is so funny and entertaining I actually laugh out loud while watching his show on Food Network. I also love sandwiches but most importantly I am entertained while learning great recipes from Jeff. What a great addition to Food Network! I need to be his side kick and we need to take this show on the road! So real and so good! Laughter and great food…….the BEST medicine!!!! Great Recipe!
Great recipe! However don’t forget to remove the intestinal tract (full of yummy lobster poop from the tail before you chop it. I hope Jeff and his wife enjoyed that extra bit of protein in his recipe. All New Englanders who watched this were thinking the same thing.
Really nice combinations for a terrific Sunday sandwich while watching football! It’s the simple recipes, like this, that sometimes make for the best eats. I did have to make just one addition, though – cayenne pepper! Not necessary, but I wanted the kick! Ha!
Great Sandwich!!! LOVED IT! So easy to make, again another winner for Jeff. This lobster salad is delicious and can be served simply on a bed of arugula (or iceburg lettuce for lunch or a light supper. He’s truly the Sandwich King!
Great recipe and very easy to follow. The lobster salad was creamy and nutty. The taste of the mayo, lemon and tarragon were present, but not overpowered the lobster meat by any means. Just added a dash of hot sauce to give it some kick. Delicious!!!
