Corn on the Cob on the Grill




Super easy and super delish!
Now that we can get some super sweet corn on the cob at the store, I figured I'd post how to grill it! There are many ways you can do it, but this is how I did it this time around!



Take your corn and lay it on a piece of foil



Butter it up!



Look at that butter, yummy! :oP



Sprinkle salt and pepper on it



Roll it up



Twist the ends like so... (a piece of hard candy)



All done off the grill and ready to eat!



YUMMY!!!! (sorry, it's on a kids plate, we were in a hurry and that was the first one I unwrapped!)



Corn on the Cob on the Grill
As many ears of corn you want
Butter (the REAL butter, stick)
Salt and pepper, optional
(If you want some spicy, add some crushed red pepper to it with the salt and pepper)
Foil

Shuck all your ears of corn, make sure you get all the little "hairs" off, then wash it, pat dry with a towel.
Take your piece of foil and lay an ear of corn on it, then slide the stick of butter all around your ear of corn. You want to make sure it's nice and buttery!
Then season with salt and pepper if you like, you don't have to.
Then wrap your corn up and twist the sides, ya know how some hard candy is wrapped?
Take it over to your grill, and put it on your top rack. Mine wasn't big enough so I turned only the front burner on and then put them all towards the back of the grill, so it wasn't directly above the heat. (make sense?)
I closed the lid and left my heat on high, checked it after 15 minutes and then I turned them over. Let them go for another 10 to 15 minutes, then take them off the grill.
Enjoy!
The great thing about fixing it this way is since it's wrapped in foil, you can let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes and it will stay HOT! I unwrapped the ones for my kids so they would be nice and cool for them, but 20 minutes later, my hubby's and I was still hot. VERY good!!!
