Steps:
- Prepare the grill for cooking over direct medium heat. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and blend in the lime juice, chili powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- Split the lobsters completely in half down the back with a chef's knife. Remove the tails and claws. Discard the rest. Crack the shells on the claws and inject or drizzle them each with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Season the tails lightly with the rub. Grill the tails and claws for about 5 minutes on each side. Spoon some of the Chili-Lime Butter into the tail shells. Cook until the lobster is just barely done, another 4 to 5 minutes. This will vary depending on your grill. Serve the remaining Chili-Lime Butter for dipping.

Steps:
- For the chili lime butter: In a large bowl, stir together the softened butter, parsley, shallots, miso, Fresno chiles and lime zest and season to taste with salt and pepper. In a small pot, gently melt about 1/2 cup of the chili lime butter over the grill. Set aside the remaining chili lime butter.
- For the pork: In a small bowl, combine the salt, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika and pepper. Drizzle the tenderloin with olive oil, then season all over with the spice rub. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for 1 hour.
- Preheat half of a grill to medium-high heat.
- Grill the tenderloin on the hot side of the grill on all sides until nicely browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Once seared, move the tenderloin to the cool side of the grill and let cook with the grill lid down, turning occasionally, until the pork reaches 140 degrees F internal temperature. Remove the pork from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
- For the peaches: While the pork rests, grill the peaches. Drizzle the halved peaches with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place flesh-side down on the hot part of the grill and cook until nicely charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the peaches and spoon some of the reserved chili lime butter into the well of each peach. Cook another 2 to 3 minutes on second side, and then remove to a serving platter.
- For the salad: In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil and Dijon and season with salt and pepper. Add in the watercress, cilantro and parsley leaves and toss together.
- To serve, slice the rested tenderloin into 1-inch medallions, and then drizzle with the melted butter before serving alongside the peaches and watercress salad.

- Place the lobster flesh side down onto the grill and cook for 4 to 6 minutes on each side. Meanwhile, make the mango salsa.
- To serve, place one half of the lobster on each plate and serve with spoonfuls of the salsa on the side.
- In a medium bowl, combine mango, red onion, chile pepper, parsley, cilantro, spring onions, lime juice, and olive oil. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Set aside at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest lobster possible. Live lobsters are ideal, but if you can't find live lobsters, frozen lobster tails are a good option.
- Cook the lobster properly. Overcooked lobster is tough and chewy, so be careful not to overcook it. The best way to cook lobster is to steam it, boil it, or grill it.
- Make sure the chili lime butter is flavorful. Use fresh lime juice and zest, and don't be afraid to add a little bit of heat with the chili peppers.
- Serve the lobster with your favorite sides. Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and grilled corn on the cob are all great options.
