Ingredients

  • 4 Fresh corn on the cob husks on
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Butter herbs, or spices for additional flavor

Instructions

  • Prepare the Corn: Peel back the husks of the corn, leaving them attached at the base. Remove the silk (corn hairs) and then pull the husks back up.
  • Soak the Corn: Place the corn in a large bowl of water and let it soak for at least 15-20 minutes. This helps prevent the husks from burning on the grill.
  • Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Season the Corn: Brush each ear of corn with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add any additional herbs or spices if desired.
  • Grill the Corn: Place the corn on the grill, close the lid, and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally. The husks will become charred, and the corn kernels will be tender.
  • Serve: Remove the corn from the grill, let it cool for a moment, and then peel back the husks. Optionally, brush with melted butter before serving.
