4. Remove the meat from the lobster and coarsely chop.
5. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a small saute pan on the grates of the grill.

7. Place 4 tortillas on a work surface and divide the half of the cheese, lobster, and garlic among the tortillas. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
8. Place another tortilla on top and then divide the remaining cheese, lobster, and garlic over top.
9. Place the remaining tortillas on top to make 2-layer quesadillas.
10. Brush tops of the tortillas with oil and then place the quesadillas on the grill, oiled side down. Grill until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip the quesadillas over, close the cover of the grill, and grill until the cheese has melted, about 2 to 3 minutes longer.

15. Pour the mixture into a medium bowl.
16. Preheat grill to high.

20. Remove skin and cut into julienne strips.
21. Transfer the peppers to the bowl with the ancho puree and add the vinegar. Chop the cilantro, add it to the salsa, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
