Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

8 ears corn
Kosher salt
BBQ Butter, recipe follows
Herb Butter, recipe follows
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 small red onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons Spanish paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder
1 teaspoon toasted cumin seeds
1 tablespoon ancho chili powder
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, slightly softened
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (basil, chives or tarragon)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the grill to medium.
  • Pull the outer husks down the ear to the base. Strip away the silk from each ear of corn by hand. Fold husks back into place, and place the ears of corn in a large bowl of cold water with 1 tablespoon of salt for 10 minutes.
  • Remove corn from water and shake off excess. Place the corn on the grill, close the cover and grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, or until kernels are tender when pierced with a paring knife. Remove the husks and eat on the cob or remove the kernels. Serve with the BBQ Butter and/or Herb Butter. Spread over the corn while hot.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over high heat until almost smoking. Add the onion and cook until soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the paprika, cayenne, cumin and ancho powder and cook for 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup of water and cook until the mixture becomes thickened and the water reduces. Let cool slightly.
  • Place the butter in a food processor, add the spice mixture and Worcestershire sauce and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, scrape the mixture into a small bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Bring to room temperature before serving.
  • Combine in a food processor and process until smooth.

Tips:

  • Choose the right corn: Look for ears with tightly packed kernels and bright green husks. Avoid ears with brown or dry husks, as this indicates that the corn is old.
  • Prepare the corn properly: Peel back the husks and remove the silk. Rinse the ears under cold water to remove any debris.
  • Use a hot grill: The hotter the grill, the better the corn will be. Aim for a grill temperature of at least 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grill the corn for the right amount of time: Corn should be grilled for 10-15 minutes, or until the kernels are tender and slightly charred.
  • Season the corn with your favorite toppings: Popular toppings include butter, salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, and chili powder.

Conclusion:

Grilled sweet corn is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, snack, or main course. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, it's a perfect choice for any summer gathering. So fire up the grill and enjoy some delicious grilled sweet corn today!
