Not all recipes need to be fancy or time consuming to be delicious. This is another play on a classic dish, and by play I mean the recipe has lobster and a few tweaks to make the sweet and spicy sausage pair wonderfully with succulent lobster!

Wine & Beer Pairing: Champagne, Viognier, or Unoaked and buttery Chardonnay. For beer go with a lager or German Wheat beer.
