*GRILLED CORN ON THE COB*


This corn is so very tasty and tender, love it, it’s so good. Make it even more special by spreading the corn with the different butters below. :))

6 ears corn
6 tbsp. butter, softener
Salt and pepper to taste...

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
Peel back corn husks and remove silk. Place 1 tablespoon butter, salt and pepper on each piece of corn. Close husks.
Wrap each ear of corn tightly in aluminum foil. Place on the barbecue. Cook approximately 30 minutes, turning occasionally, until corn is tender.

SUGGESTION: Take a strip of bacon and wrap it around the corn in a spiral fashion. Fold the corn husks back over, covering the bacon and corn. Tie the husks with butchers’ string; repeat the process for each ear of corn. Place the ears of corn on the hot grill and cook, turning occasionally, until bacon is cooked and corn is tender, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Serve with butter, if desired.
