Grilling Lobster, Langoustine, Prawns and Scallops on the Beefer
The Beefer is a professional-grade ceramic grill reaching up to 1500°F, bringing restaurant-level searing power to your home. Its top-mounted ceramic burner works like a salamander grill, locking in juices and flavour almost instantly. This makes it perfect for shellfish, which cook quickly and require precision heat to maintain their delicate texture. Using the Beefer for lobster, langoustine, prawns, and scallops lets you achieve incredible flavour with minimal fuss.
🔥 Why High Heat Matters for Shellfish
Instant Searing: Creates a golden, caramelised crust quickly.
Juicy Interiors: Prevents overcooking and keeps shellfish tender.
Enhanced Flavour: Captures natural juices and intensifies taste.
Minimal Flare-ups: Juices do not hit flames, preserving pure shellfish flavour.
🦞 Choosing the Right Shellfish Cuts & Recipes
Lobster: Split and halved. Recipe: Brush lobster tails with garlic butter and grill 2–3 minutes per side until lightly charred. Serve with a squeeze of lemon.
Langoustine: Ideal whole. Recipe: Toss in olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt and fresh parsley, grill 1–2 minutes each side, and serve with a drizzle of lemon-infused oil.
Prawns: Peeled or in-shell. Recipe: Marinate in garlic, chili, and olive oil for 10 minutes. Grill 30–45 seconds per side. Serve immediately with a fresh herb garnish.
Scallops: Large sea scallops. Recipe: Brush with melted butter, season with salt and pepper, sear 45–60 seconds per side until golden, and finish with a light squeeze of lime or lemon.
🔧 Cooking Tips
Preheat the Beefer to full temperature for optimal searing.
Lightly brush shellfish with oil, butter, or marinade to prevent sticking.
Cook in small batches for even heat exposure.
Rest briefly after grilling to retain juices.
Handle gently with tongs or a metal spatula to avoid tearing.
