Tips:

  • Choose fresh corn on the cob. Look for ears with tightly packed, plump kernels and bright green husks. Avoid ears with dried-out kernels or brown spots.
  • Soak the corncobs in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will help to prevent the kernels from drying out and burning.
  • Grill the corncobs over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice char on the outside of the kernels while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Rotate the corncobs every few minutes to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Brush the corncobs with melted butter or olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the corn.
  • Serve the corncobs immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include butter, sour cream, cheese, and chili.
