Spread the edges of the split lobster shells and gently lift the tail meat to sit on top of the shells. Set the tails on a baking sheet and brush the meat with melted butter.

In a bowl, gently combine the crabmeat, clarified butter, crushed crackers, parsley, lemon juice, seafood seasoning, lemon zest, garlic, salt, and pepper until fully mixed.

Spoon 1/2 of the mixture into each tail and press lightly to pack it so it stays in place.

Bake in the preheated oven until the meat turns opaque and the stuffing is golden on top, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lobster tail should show 145 degrees F (65 degrees C).
