I have only ever broiled jumbo scallops in butter, they are done when they look opaque. I have never had a rubbery scallop.

@chrystaltree sea scallops are bigger scallops.  Bay scallops are small, like a marble.  If it doesn't say which on the menu, I always ask.  I don't care for bay scallops .

I cook sea scallops until they have color on them.  Sometimes I cut them in half and cook.

That's good to know, thanks.   I think we only get the sea scallops here in NE, I've never seen them designated as Sea or Bay when I buy them.  Although I do see big ones and little ones in the fish market so perhaps that's the difference.  I only buy the big ones...sea scallops.

I tend to avoid "Land" Scallops - they might be Rocky Mountain Oysters in disguise!  LOL
