Now, back to the temperature thing. When it comes to broiling lobster tails, you want to make sure you're at the right heat level. If it's too low, your lobster will be all soggy and unappetizing, like a sad, limp noodle - not exactly what you're going for.
So, here's the deal: preheat your broiler to 400°F. Yes, it's that simple. Just crank it up to 400, and you'll be golden. Well, unless you have a ancient oven that doesn't quite cooperate - in that case, you might need to do some fancy temperature math to get it just right.
But don't worry, even if your oven is a bit temperamental, you can still achieve lobster perfection. Just keep an eye on those tails, and adjust the temperature as needed. And remember, it's all about the timing - you want to broil them for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until they're nice and pink.
