Begin by preparing the lobster meat. If needed, cook and remove lobster meat from the shell. Chop the meat into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lobster meat, mayonnaise, lemon juice, diced celery, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning, if desired.
Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium heat.
Brush the outsides of the split-top hot dog buns with melted butter.
Toast each bun on the griddle or skillet until golden brown and crisp, about 1-2 minutes per side.
Fill each toasted bun generously with the lobster mixture.
Serve immediately, optionally garnished with additional parsley or a wedge of lemon on the side.
