This right here is the true New England classic, straight from the shore to your kitchen! Split-Top Bun Lobster Rolls are lobster rolls at their peak; a mixture of tender, tantalizing lobster meat coated in tangy mayonnaise to help unlock their full succulence and a little lemon flavoring to help keep things bright, like a trip to the beach! Of course, they can't be true Split-Top Bun Lobster Rolls without the rolls, and these ones are lightly grilled in butter to make sure they're toasty and crunchy for the perfect contrast. Nothing beats enjoying these sandwiches in the sun!
