Place a lobster on a cutting board, shell side down. Insert the tip of a large, sharp knife into the lobsters body just below the head (no need to be shy about this processit takes some strength), and cut the lobster open down the center, cutting through the body but not through the back shell. (The shell will hold the juices as it cooks.)

Brush the cooking grates clean. Grill the lobsters, shell side down, over direct medium heat, with the lid closed as much as possible, until the tail meat is firm and white, 10 to 15 minutes, brushing occasionally with additional butter. (Soft-shell lobsters will cook more quickly than hard-shell lobsters.) At the same time, if your grill is big enough, grill the corn. If not, grill the corn after the lobsters.

Recommended wine: Chablis, Chardonnay

Chablis and Chardonnay are great choices for Lobster. Chablis is perfect with lobster, but a chardonny from other regions is bound to hit the spot too. One wine you could try is Domaine Geoffroy Chablis Beauroy Vieilles Vignes Premier Cru. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 35 dollars.

Golden yellow color, brilliant, luminous and limpid. The nose is dense and fragrant with subtle hints of vanilla and spices, dried fruits and fresh ... A nice nose demonstrative and delicate. The wine is rich and fine at the same time, with subtle notes of spice and toast, the mouth savory succeeds the marriage of minerality and richness ending in a remarkable complexity.
