Turn up the heat

Let’s cook.

Pat the lobster meat dry so the filling does not become watery. Place it in a medium bowl.
Add the lemon juice, mayonnaise, chives, parsley, celery, salt, and black pepper. Fold gently until the lobster is evenly coated.
Brush the outside of each bun with melted butter. Toast the buns in a skillet over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden.
Divide the lobster salad between the warm buns and serve immediately.

From Justin’s kitchen

Keep the lobster salad cold until serving. The filling can be prepared up to 4 hours ahead and refrigerated.
