Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 tablespoons butter (softened)
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dried garlic powder (optional)
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper (optional)
6 ears corn (shucked)

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to 400°F.
  • Mash butter with salt, garlic powder and pepper until smooth (works great with a small fork).
  • Rub each ear of corn with butter mixture, then place on large aluminium foil pieces (I do 2 ears of corn per foil packet, but can also do each individually). If using regular aluminium foil, use a double layer to protect corn from direct heat. Fold foil up and over ears of corn to create a foil packet, crimping to seal all edges.
  • Place corn in foil packets on grill, close lid and grill for 10 minutes.
  • Carefully remove packets from grill, very carefully open and flip each ear of corn. Carefully seal foil packets again and finish grilling corn for another 10-20 minutes, until cooked through and slightly starting to brown.
  • Carefully remove foil packets from grill, carefully open and serve corn with more butter and salt.

Tips:

  • Pick fresh corn: Look for ears with tightly packed kernels and fresh green husks.
  • Remove the husks carefully: Peel back the husks, but don't remove them completely. You'll use them to wrap the corn in foil.
  • Season the corn: Before wrapping the corn in foil, brush it with melted butter or oil and sprinkle it with your favorite seasonings. This will help the corn to stay moist and flavorful.
  • Wrap the corn tightly in foil: Make sure the corn is completely covered in foil so that it steams evenly.
  • Cook the corn over medium heat: This will help to prevent the corn from burning.
  • Let the corn rest before serving: This will help the corn to cool slightly and make it easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Foil packet corn on the cob is a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to use fresh corn in season, and it's also a healthy and affordable option.
