Take note
Remember to exercise caution while handling hot grill, and always use oven mitts or tongs to avoid burns.

1

Preheat the grill

Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. If you're using a charcoal grill, make sure the coals are evenly spread and glowing with a light layer of white ash.

2

Prepare the corn

Peel back the husks of each corn ear, leaving them attached at the base. Remove the silk strands by hand or use a soft brush to gently brush them away. Pull the husks back up to cover the corn.

3

Soak the corn

Place the prepared corn ears in a large bowl of cold water. Let them soak for about 15 minutes. This will help keep the corn juicy and prevent the husks from burning.

4

Grill the corn

Remove the corn from the water and shake off any excess. Place the corn on the preheated grill, directly over the heat. Close the lid and let it cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally. The husks should become slightly charred and the kernels tender.

5

Serve and enjoy

Carefully remove the corn from the grill using tongs. Let it cool for a minute before peeling back the husks. Serve the grilled corn on a platter, and season with butter, salt, and your favorite herbs or spices. Now dig in and savor the deliciousness!
