Steps:

• Preheat grill pan or outdoor grill to high.
• Combine beef, shallot, thyme, Worcestershire, smoked paprika or cumin, and grill seasoning. Combine and divide meat into 4 portions. Form large patties about 1 1/4 inches thick. Coat beef patties with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Cook 3 to 4 minutes preside for medium rare, 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium well to well doneness.
• Cut shrimp along deveining line and "butterfly" them open a little. Be careful not to cut all the way through the shrimp. Leave tails in tact. Place shrimp in a shallow dish. Coat shrimp in extra-virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with grill seasoning or salt and pepper. Add parsley, lemon zest and finely chopped garlic, turn shrimp to coat evenly in flavorings. Wedge lemon which you have zested to pass later at the table with cooked shrimp. Grill shrimp alongside meat patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until heads curl towards tails and shrimp are pink.
• While meat and shrimp cook, arrange 4 beds of cut iceberg lettuce on platter and combine horseradish with chili sauce in a small bowl. To serve, place burgers on lettuce "buns" and dot with sauce, then top with 2 grilled shrimp. Pass remaining sauce and lemon wedges at table.

Steps:

• For the burgers: Divide the shrimp in half. Coarsely chop one half and set aside. Place the remaining shrimp into the bowl of a food processor and pulse 5 times.
• In a large bowl, mix together the panko, eggs, hot sauce, garlic, seafood seasoning, and black pepper. Mix in the pureed shrimp, parsley, chives, jalapenos, and green onions. Add the coarsely chopped shrimp and stir to combine. To moisten the mix a bit more, add some olive oil. Form the mixture into 8 patties and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill for 20 minutes in the freezer or 2 hours in the fridge.
• In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add the canola oil to generously cover the bottom of the pan. Once the oil is hot, fry 4 burgers at a time, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and cover with foil. Repeat with the remaining 4 burgers.
• For the butter: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the butter, lemon juice and zest, and capers. Cook until melted, about 2 minutes.
• To build the burgers, brush the buns with butter and lay the patties on the bottom of the hamburger bun. Top with bacon pieces and lettuce. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to high.
• In a large bowl combine the beef, shallot, thyme, Worcestershire, smoked paprika or cumin, and grill seasoning. Divide the meat into 4 portions and form large patties about 1 1/4 inches thick.

• Cut the shrimp along the deveining line and "butterfly" them open a little. Be careful not to cut all the way through the shrimp and to leave the tails intact. Place the shrimp in a shallow dish and coat in EVOO. Sprinkle with the grill seasoning or salt and pepper. Add the parsley, lemon zest, and garlic and turn the shrimp to coat evenly in flavorings. Grill the shrimp alongside the meat patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until heads curl toward tails and the shrimp are pink.
• While the meat and shrimp cook, arrange 4 beds of cut iceberg lettuce on a platter and combine the horseradish with chili sauce in a small bowl. To serve, place the burgers on toast with lettuce "buns" as tops and dot with sauce, then top with 2 grilled shrimp. Pass the remaining sauce and the lemon wedges at the table. Serve with Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus Bundles (page 57).

Steps:

• Combine first 7 ingredients in processor and blend until almost smooth. Spread 1 heaping teaspoon seasoned butter over each side of each steak and over each lobster half. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour. Transfer remaining seasoned butter to small saucepan.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Set pan with butter at edge of barbecue until butter is melted and warmed through. Grill steaks until cooked to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side. Grill lobster, shell side down, 5 minutes. Turn over and grill until meat is just opaque in center, about 3 minutes. Transfer steaks and lobster to plates. Serve with warm seasoned butter.
