Start by preparing the lobster meat. If using whole lobsters, boil them for around 8-10 minutes until bright red, then extract the meat. If using pre-cooked lobster, skip this step.
Chop the lobster meat into bite-sized pieces and place it in a mixing bowl.
Finely dice the celery stalk and add it to the lobster meat.
Add the mayonnaise to the bowl along with the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the lobster evenly.
Fold in the chives, reserving a few for garnish.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt the butter.
Split open the New England style hot dog buns.
Place the buns on the skillet, open side down, and toast until golden brown and crisp, about 1-2 minutes per side.
Remove the buns from the skillet and fill them generously with the lobster mixture.
Sprinkle the remaining chives over the top to garnish.
Serve the lobster rolls immediately, perhaps with a side of coleslaw or chips for the complete experience.
