Lobster BLT

This Lobster BLT has a lemony tarragon mayo, arugula, seasoned tomatoes, crispy bacon and lots of buttery lobster. Everything you love from a BLT, but taken to the next level!

This buttery Lobster BLT takes the classic sandwich and gives it a summer upgrade. Warm lobster tossed in melted butter gets layered onto toasted ciabatta with crispy bacon, seasoned tomatoes, arugula, and a creamy tarragon lemon mayo. It’s fresh, savory, and feels like the kind of sandwich you’d order near the water in the middle of summer.

The tarragon lemon mayo really ties everything together here. The lemon keeps it bright while the crème fraîche adds richness that works perfectly with the lobster. Paired with salty bacon, juicy tomatoes, and crusty ciabatta, this sandwich hits every texture in the best way.
