Gather ingredients: Atlantic North Atlantic lobster, jersey peppers, sweet onions, celery, organic mayonnaise, Old Bay seasoning, cilantro, salt, and pepper.

Chop the jersey peppers and sweet onions into small pieces, ensuring they are all about the same size for even bites.

Remove the membrane from the peppers before chopping to avoid having large pieces in the lobster roll.

Use a Hawaiian sweet roll for the lobster roll; other options include traditional hot dog rolls or brioche rolls.

Grill the onions if desired for added flavor.

Chop cilantro, including some of the stems for added flavor and nutrients.

Boil the lobster in water for about 5-7 minutes until it turns red.

Remove the lobster from the water, crack the shell, and extract the meat.

In a bowl, combine the lobster meat with mayonnaise, starting with a small amount and adding more to taste.

Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and Old Bay seasoning, adjusting to preference.

Fill the Hawaiian sweet rolls with the lobster mixture, ensuring there's more lobster than dressing.
