Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 ears of corn
  • 4 teaspoons butter
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, 350 or 400° F.
  • While the grill is heating up, remove the husks and silk from the corn. Leave a little bit of stem attached at the end to use as a handle.
  • Brush the corn with butter and season with salt and pepper or any other seasonings you prefer.
  • Place the corn directly on the grill grates and cook, turning every few minutes, until the corn is lightly charred and cooked through.

Notes

  • You can also cook the corn inside the husk, which actually steams it rather than grilling it. I don't prefer this method because it doesn't give you the lovely charred grill flavor.
  • You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, paprika, or chili powder, depending on your preferences.
