MEXICAN GRILLED CORN
I consider this to be the greatest corn-on-the-cob recipe of all time. The way the mild, subtly salted cheese works with an ancho-lime mayonnaise, along with that buttery, smoky corn, is a magnificent combination of flavors. Perfecto!

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Steps:
- Pull all of the husks back from the corn without removing it. Pull off and remove all the silk, using a soft brush to get the last stubborn strands. Return the husks to their original position and twist the tops.
- In a large deep bowl, cover the corn with cold water and weight down with a plate to keep them all submerged. Let the corn soak for 1 hour. Meanwhile, light a charcoal fire and let it burn until the coals are medium hot. Set the grill rack 4 inches from the hot coals. Lay the corn on the grill rack and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, turning frequently with tongs. Pull back some husks to test the kernels for doneness if desired. Remove from the grill, let cool for a few minutes and pull the husks back to the base again so that you can use them as a handle for picking up the corn. Set aside until ready to serve the rest of the meal. Brush the corn with the butter and return it to the grill rack for about 10 minutes, turning frequently, until nicely browned. Sprinkle the corn with the chile powder and pass the sour cream and cheese at the table for guests to help themselves.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILE BUTTER
In South Africa, charred ears of corn (called braai mielies) are year-round, smoky-sweet roadside snacks. This version is a side dish for the American summer, when corn and grilling are both in season. The cobs are slicked with butter and sparked with chile heat; in South Africa, they would be served alongside a pile of charcoal-grilled lamb chops or steak or giant prawns, or all of the above. For a more rustic effect (and more effort), use the corn husks as a wrapper instead of aluminum foil. Soak the unshucked cobs in cold water for at least 15 minutes. Peel back the husks but do not detach them from the cobs; remove all the cornsilk. After rubbing on the butter, rearrange the husks around each cob and tie in place with twine.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for high-heat cooking. For each corn cob, tear a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely.
- In a bowl, combine the butter, chile, garlic (if using), salt and pepper. Mix well and taste. Adjust the seasonings; add drops of hot sauce if the butter is not spicy enough. Set aside.
- Shuck the corn. Use your hands to rub butter mixture thoroughly onto each cob, reserving about 1/4 of the mixture for basting. Wrap each buttered cob in aluminum foil.
- When ready to cook, place cobs on the grill (or, if the fire is low, in the coals) and cook 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until steamed and cooked through.
- Unwrap and place on the grill. Use remaining butter to baste the corn as it grills, turning it until lightly charred and cooked through. Serve immediately with lime wedges, if using.
Tips:
- Choose the right corn: Select fresh corn on the cob with tightly packed kernels and bright green husks. Avoid ears with dried-out silks or brown spots.
- Prepare the corn: Remove the husks and silks from the corn. If desired, you can soak the corn in cold water for 30 minutes before grilling to help prevent the kernels from drying out.
- Grill the corn: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the corn with oil and grill for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the kernels are tender and slightly charred.
- Make the cream cheese mixture: In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped cilantro, and chili powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Assemble the corn: Spread the cream cheese mixture over the grilled corn and sprinkle with crumbled cotija cheese and chopped cilantro.
Conclusion:
Charcoal grilled corn with cream cheese and chile is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for summer cookouts. The smoky flavor of the grilled corn pairs perfectly with the creamy and spicy cream cheese mixture. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your next party or gathering.
