- Sprinkle each with lemon juice and set aside.
- In a small saucepan, melt butter with the minced garlic over low heat.
- Remove from heat.
- In a plastic ziplock bag, combine bread crumbs, herbs, garlic powder, cayenne and Parmesan cheese.
- Roll the lobster meat in the garlic butter and shake them in the plastic bag with the bread crumb mixture to coat.
- Return the lobster meat to their shells.
- Grill the lobster tails, shell sides down, on a rack 4-6 inches over glowing coals with some hickory chips added, turning from side to side but not turning over, for 10 minutes.
- Cover and grill another 5 to 10 minutes until they are just cooked through.
