How to Grill Corn
Gilling with corn husks

1. To prepare the corn, first, peel back the husks without detaching them from the bottom of the cob. Then remove any silk and fold the husks back into place to cover the corn.
2. Place the corn in a sink or large bowl of water, making sure that it is completely submerged. Soak for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than 12 hours).
3. Get your grill ready by turning it up to medium-high.
4. Remove the corn from the water and shake it to remove any excess water. Place the cobs on a grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping them occasionally.
5. After the corn is cooked to your preferred tenderness, take it off the grill. Remove the husks and serve with butter, salt & pepper.

How Long Do You Have to Soak Corn Before Grilling?
If you use the husk-covered method above, then soaking will ensure moist corn. Soak for a minimum of 30 minutes, and up to 6-8 hours to get the husks fully saturated.

Grilling without corn husks

• Before you begin cooking the corn, set the grill to medium heat.
• To prepare the corn, first remove the husks and silk. Next, brush each piece with olive oil.
• For perfectly grilled corn, cook the ears for 10-15 minutes while flipping them every so often.
• After removing the corn from the grill, top it with butter and seasonings like salt and pepper to taste.

Create flavored butter to enhance the flavor of your corn.
To enhance the taste of your grilled fresh corn, blend softened butter (not melted) with some additional flavorings like plain or homemade garlic butter. Corn on the cob tastes delicious with these options.

• To achieve a flavor similar to Mexican Elote, use ancho chili powder, grated Cojita cheese, salt, and pepper.
• Fresh basil, salt, and pepper.
• Old Bay seasoning is especially good when used with shrimp tacos.
• To enhance the taste of your corn and turn it into a dessert, try using a combination of sugar and cinnamon.

Is it possible to grill corn that is still frozen?
To enjoy corn throughout the year, try grilling frozen corn on the cob. It can be stored in the freezer for a few months because it has been partially cooked (blanched). Be careful not to overcook it. Cover each cob with aluminum foil, grill them, and turn them regularly for about 10 minutes or until they are heated thoroughly.

This recipe for grilled corn is a perfect addition to any BBQ. It enhances the natural taste of corn on the cob and makes a tasty side dish. Don't forget to top it off with butter and salt to fully enjoy the smoky, charred flavors. Give it a try at your next BBQ!
