This grilled corn on the cob in husk recipe is easy to throw on the grill and even easier to eat.
We had corn fields growing up. I spent many a days sitting on a bucket in an open garage shuckin’ corn.
It wasn’t unusual to pull an ear from the plant and eat it raw because it was so sweet and tender. Point is : don’t overcook corn. If the corn is fresh, overcooking it will make it tough.
Grilled Corn On The Cob In Husk Tips
Don't have time to soak the corn with the husk on for 30 minutes? Cool, soak it for as long as you can and / or grill it without soaking 🙂
Make sure that some corn kernels are exposed on the barbecue so that the grilled corn gets some charred crispy bits.
Throw some chili lime butter on this grilled corn on the cob in husk recipe after cooking. Dig into corn "typewriter style".
