I don't know about you, but our family is obsessed with barbecuing and being outside right now. The weather where we live is beautiful, not as hot as is usual this time of year! One of our favorite things to eat in the summer is corn on the cob, and we have become a little snobby with it. Once you grill this stuff, there is NO TURNING BACK!!!!
We have gotten creative with our grilling the corn, and once it comes off the grill, there is never time for a picture, hence my son's plate where the corn was just a little hot for him. :)
My kids love the corn with butter, salt and pepper, but my husband and I like it with a little more spice and kick to it. The sky is the limit, and the flavors are to die for!
Grilled Corn on the Cob:
6 cobs of corn, with the husks removed
6-12 pieces of aluminum foil, to roll the seasoned corn in-depending if you break the cobs in half
melted butter, about 4 T. depending on how butter you like it
salt and pepper to taste
I like to add:
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
Remove the corn from the husks, along with all the stringy-gunk, that's the technical term. :)
melt the butter in the microwave until just melted. Add additional ingredients, minus the salt and pepper, in with the melted butter, and blend together. Brush the butter mixture onto each cob of corn on the aluminum foil, add salt and pepper before wrapping the corn up. Continue until all the cobs of corn are coated and seasoned.
Have the grill on low, and place the wrapped corn on the grill. Close the lid, and turn every 5-10 minutes until it has been on the grill for about 25 minutes.
You can also bake it in the oven at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. It doesn't have quite the same taste, but it is super-close!
ENJOY!
