- 6 ears of corn
For the Lemon Dill Butter:
- 4 Tbsp (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened at room temp
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Pinch of pepper or to taste
- 1 Tbsp fresh dill finely chopped

Instructions
How to Make Lemon Dill Butter:
- Cream 4 Tbsp butter with a fork in a medium bowl.
- Stir in 1/4 tsp salt, pinch of pepper and 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice and mix until smooth. The lemon juice will seem like it isn't blending, but keep mixing for a couple minutes and it will happen.
- Stir in fresh chopped dill until well incorporated. Keep the prepared butter at room temp until ready to serve corn.

How to Grill Corn:
- Preheat Grill to Med/High. Shuck corn. Leave the corn whole or break corn into halves or thirds if serving a large crowd. Wrap each ear of corn with a generous sheet of heavy duty foil making sure all sides are covered. If using regular kitchen-standard foil, double wrap the corn so it doesn't scorch.
- Grill foil-wrapped corn with the lid closed over medium/high heat, rotating the corn every 2 -3 minutes to keep from scorching. Grill for 15-20 minutes. Ours was done at 18 minutes. Once corn is finished grilling, remove foil and brush generously with lemon dill butter while warm.
Notes
- Do not add butter or oil to the cob inside the foil. It is not necessary and can cause flare-ups on the grill.
