Grilled Corn On The Cob

[R-Maclean]

Very fun to grill, Guests are always suprised when you throw it directly on the grill,And I don't know why but it tastes waaaaaaay better than boiling it.I watched a cooking show with a chef from Nepal and apparantly they love it that way.I just place it directly on the grill while others soak it in water for 15 mins either way it is fun to grill

I do it the same way. We grill up corn all the time and we don't ever use butter and it tastes great.

Making me hungry...

I do the same thing...directly onto the grill...except halfway thru I throw a little butter on and sprinkle with creole seasoning. Butter helps the creole stick.

we soak for 15-30 mins then straight to the grill, husk on.

That sounds awesome!. I recently coated the corn with olive oil then wiped some butter on it (real butter not margarine) wrapped it back in the husk and bbq'ed it. the oil seem to heat the corn better and cook it through while the butter browned a bit and gave it a smoky flavor. I have 10 ears of corn for tonight. I will try the creole...

I usually wrap them in foil with the butter in the foil and then place on the grill...that way too many beers and disregard for time will even keep the corn from burning

That's very similar to mine. I always peel the husk back and remove the threads, spread on some clarified butter, olive oil, or truffle butter, season with s&p and wrap back up and onto the grill. When it's almost done let the husk open up or peel it back (or even cut it off) and get some carmelization before pulling them off. Oh yeah... I do soak 'em first too--unless I forget. Comes out good either way really.

Job's creole seasoning sounds tasty too....

5 ears corn, husks and silk removed
1 cup shredded Parmesan
Chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


Prepare grill.
Brush a thin layer of mayonnaise on corn. Sprinkle the corn with cheese, chili powder, salt and pepper. Wrap each corn with foil and place on the grill. Turn occasionally and cook for about 10 minutes (until kernels begin to brown). Serve warm.

I'm a picky eater, but this is delicious.

Does anyone remember the "corn guys" that used to come around certain neighborhoods with carts, ala the paleta guys?

You could get corn on the cob slathered with mayo and other tasty accoutrements...took years off of your life but it was THE shiznit.

Oooh, Blotto's sounds good!

Here's our favorite, taken from the Patio Daddy-O cookbook:

Dragonbreath Corn on the Cob
6 ears of corn (I use white when available)
6 T sweet (unsalted) butter, room temp
3 T grated lime zest (use a microplane if possible)
1/2 tsp. salt (I use kosher)
1/4 tsp. cayenne (I use like 3/4 tsp. at least)
2 T fresh lime juice

Strip husks & silk from corn. Mix remaining ingredients to create a smooth spread. Smear all over each ear, then wrap each individually in a sheet of foil, sealing well. Grill on medium direct heat for about 20 minutes, turning every five. Mmmmm.

I grill the corn first, then add the rest. I also cut the mayo in half and replace it with sour cream and use a good asiago cheese instead of parmesan.
