Barbecued Lobster Tails

4 frozen Lobster Tails (8 to 10 oz.)
12 oz. (3/4 lb.) melted butter

Thaw Lobster Tails, cut fins from underside of tails. Turn right side up and split back of shell and meat lengthwise, being careful not to cut through bottom of shell. Using both hands pull split apart until shell snaps open. Holding the wide part of the tail away from you, pull the meat out of the shell towards you almost down to the end. Leave enough attached so meat is still connected to shell. Brush inside of shell with butter and put meat back into shell. Repeat for all 4 tails. Place tails top up on barbecue, brush meat with butter, cook 5 minutes or until starts to look cooked 1/2 way through, turn over, cook 5 minutes or until done. Serve with melted butter.
