Step 2:

In a large bowl, add lobster pre-cooked tail, claw, and knuckle meat; stir in margarita marinade. Let chill in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.

Step 3:

Preheat the grill, then add marinated lobster meat. Note, you can use a vegetable grate to prevent any meat from falling through if you have wide grates on your grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until meat is cooked through. Note – please use extra caution while cooking with alcohol as it is highly flammable.

Step 4:

Remove from the grill. Slice lobster meat into smaller bite-sized portions if needed.

Step 5:

Place in a tortilla with some cabbage, lime juice, pico de gallo, and queso fresco, and enjoy!
