Some of us prefer the taste of grilled lobster to boiled. The smokiness of the fire balances the richness of the meat while simultaneously intensifying its flavor.

Cooks' notes:

•Lobsters can be cooked in 2 batches in an 8- to 10-quart pot.
•If you aren't able to grill outdoors, lobsters and potatoes can be cooked in a hot oiled well-seasoned large (2-burner) ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.
