Easy Grilled Corn
 

I just did this last night so it's fresh in my memory....

Easy Grilled Corn

12 ears of fresh-picked corn
1 hot BBQ
1 pair of heavy leather work gloves
butter
salt
pepper

Pre-heat your grill on high for ten minutes (mine hits close to 500 F).
Place the unshucked ears of corn directly on the grill and close the
lid. After eight minutes, use tongs to rotate each ear 180 degrees
(charred side now facing up) and close the lid. DON'T FIDDLE WITH IT.

After cooking for eight more minutes (sixteen minutes total cooking
time) shuck the corn while wearing leather gloves - the cobs are hot!
I do it on the deck as it's a little messy - the husks will be somewhat
charred and if you're lucky you'll have a little carmellization on some
of the cobs. The husks go into a plastic bag and then to my composter.

Serve immediately with butter, salt, and pepper. Leftovers can be
brushed with your favourite BBQ sauce and reheated on the grill.

*** For the faint of heart, you can soak the ears of corn in water for
half an hour prior to grilling, but straight onto the grill works just
as well in my opinion - and it's faster! ***
