Grilled Corn on the Cob

The easiest 1 ingredient recipe I never tried until this week. Tender, sweet corn ready in 20 minutes without steaming up your kitchen - August perfection!
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings 4 people

Ingredients

  • 4 ears fresh corn on the cob In the husks

Instructions

  • Grab some ears of corn - the fresher the better. They are in abundance here in the upper midwest in August!
  • Heat a grill to hot. I love the touch of smoky flavor a charcoal grill adds to the corn if I have time, otherwise, the gas grill works beautifully.
  • Place the corn on the grill (no need to soak, peel or de-tassel)
  • Enjoy a glass of wine (or soft drink) while the corn is cooking - its summer, after all
  • Grill the corn, turning every 5 minutes, until it's charred on all sides and tender - about 20 minutes
  • Serve with a dash of salt and a bit of butter and enjoy!
