| 4 lobster tails, 7 oz. each |
| 1 stick salted butter |

Directions:
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Blend together garlic, black pepper, butter, tarragon and chives with a spatula in a mixing bowl. After combined, cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
- Butterfly lobster tails down the middle of the bottom part of the shell. Cut and pull meat out of shell, be careful to not totally remove meat from shell. Insert metal skewer down the center of lobster tail. Brush with olive oil and season with kosher salt.
