Grilled lobster is delicious, and it's easier to cook lobster on the grill than you might think.

Start by selecting live lobsters that weigh between 1-1/2 and 2 pounds. In a large pot, bring about two gallons of water to a boil. Parboil two lobsters at a time in a covered pot for five to seven minutes.
