50 States, 50 Sizzling Dishes: The Ultimate Foodie Road Trip Through The USA
Warm Lobster Rolls from Connecticut
Forget your cold mayo-slathered lobster rolls because, in Connecticut, these crustacean kings get the royal treatment: bathed in warm, melty butter and nestled in a toasted hug of a bun. No fancy toppings, just succulent, fresh-from-the-ocean meat showcasing its naturally sweet, buttery depths.
This indulgence has its roots in the 1920s when roadside seafood shacks along the state’s coast started serving lobsters this way. The concept was simple, the impact monumental. Soon, every clam shack and lobster pound was singing the warm butter ballad, and the Connecticut Warm Lobster Roll became a statewide obsession.
