Menu Ideas from Keith Hand: Lobster Roll Station

When entertaining I like to set up an action station. One that I have been fond of is the Lobster Roll Slider Station. You can use a flat top griddle on you stove or you can use a pancake griddle and make it a remote station if you prefer. I keep the recipe very simple, just like in Provincetown, with mayonnaise, celery and lobster with a butter grilled slider bun.

Our guests really flip over the hot and cold as well as the simple cold lobster salad. This is a new tradition, but is well received by my Southern mother! It’s also a great idea for a cocktail party or an “interactive” family dinner. If you’re not up for preparing the entire meal, let your guests bring the side dishes. For variety, you can also salmon, chicken, Ahi tuna instead of lobster. The possibilites are endless!
