In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked lobster meat, mayonnaise, diced celery, fresh lemon juice, chopped chives, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix to coat the lobster evenly without breaking it up too much. Set the lobster salad aside.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Spread a thin layer of butter on the outsides of each hot dog roll (both sides).
Place the buttered rolls on the skillet and toast for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly crisp. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Line each toasted roll with a lettuce leaf. This helps to keep the bread from getting soggy and adds a nice crunch.
Spoon the lobster salad into each roll, dividing it evenly among the 4 rolls.
Serve immediately with a side of chips or coleslaw for a complete meal.
