Steps:
- Carefully expose the corn kernels by pulling back the husk, but do NOT remove the husk.
- Remove the corn silk (you can use a soft brush to ensure that all the silk is removed).
- Put water in a large container, add the corn, and soak the corn in the husks for 30 minutes. This will help to prevent the husks from charring on the grill.
- Preheat grill to medium temperature.
- Remove the soaked corn from the water and pat dry.
- Wrap strips of bacon around the corn kernels on each ear; fold the husks back over the bacon and kernels.
- Tie the husks down with butcher string; repeat with all ears of corn.
- Grill over medium coals/heat, turning occasionally, for about 15 to 20 minutes and until the bacon is cooked and the corn is tender.
- Cut the butcher string away from the husks and serve.
- Note #1: You can make these earlier in the day if you store them in a container in the refrigerator wrapped in moistened towels.
- Note #2: I've done them ahead of time for camping, frozen them, and put them in the cooler frozen to help keep things cold in there. Take them out for cooking when thawed (or to thaw them). Put them in the coals for reheating. Wonderful! Also good with a little seasoned salt sprinkled on before wrapping - either Lowry's, Johnny's, or for a change of pace either Southwest Seasoning (http://www.recipezaar.com/253112) or Curry Powder (http://www.recipezaar.com/104344).
- Note #3: I've also found that I like to pre-cook the bacon a little so that it's partially cooked, drizzle the small amount of fat mixed with a bit of oil or butter over the cobs, wrap the bacon around, then proceed with the other steps. Otherwise the bacon doesn't cook completely on the cob and is generally tossed away uneaten.

Steps:
- 1. Prepare a grill for low direct heat.
- 2. Peel back the cornhusks but do not remove them. Pull out and discard all the silk. Working from top to bottom, wrap a strip of bacon in a spiral around each ear of corn. Season with pepper. Pull the husk back over the corn. Wrap a piece of foil tightly around the top 1 1/2 inches of the ear of corn. (Or use a piece of kitchen twine soaked in water to tie the tops of the cornhusks closed.)
- 3. Grill the corn about 10 minutes or until the husks are brown all over, turning occasionally. Let corn cool for 5 minutes before serving.
GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WRAPPED WITH BACON
The saltiness of bacon brings out the sweetness in corn, and grilling adds mellow smokiness. Don't worry if you see charring-it mostly affects the husk and will bring out a deeper flavor in the kernels.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to high (if using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 1 to 2 seconds). Pull back husks completely (do not remove), exposing corn. Discard silk, using a vegetable brush to remove silk completely.
- Wrap 1 strip of bacon around each ear of corn. Pull corn husks back up, covering bacon and corn. Tie open end of husk with kitchen twine.
- Grill corn, turning occasionally with tongs, until kernels are tender and bacon is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes (husks will blacken). Transfer corn to a large bowl or platter; serve with salt and pepper for seasoning.

- Brush the corn with melted butter or olive oil: This will help keep the corn moist and flavorful.
- Season the corn with salt and pepper: This will enhance the flavor of the corn.
