Instructions

  1. Prepare the corn: Peel back the husks of the corn, but leave them attached at the base. Remove the silk threads from the corn and discard them. Replace the husks.
  2. Preheat the grill: Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat, which usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
  3. Soak the corn: soak the corn in cold water for about 15-30 minutes before grilling.
  4. Prepare the corn: Remove the husks and silk from the corn cobs. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk or debris. Pat the corn dry with a paper towel.
  5. Preheat the grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
  6. Season the corn: Spritz the corn with olive oil and sprinkle it with salt and pepper, if desired.
  7. Season the corn (optional): Brush the corn with olive oil or melted butter, and sprinkle it with salt, pepper, or any other desired seasonings before replacing the husk and grilling. This step is optional but adds flavor to the corn.
  8. Grill the corn: Place the corn directly on the preheated grill grates. Close the grill and cook the corn for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally. The corn should develop grill marks and a slightly charred appearance.
  9. Grill the corn: Place the corn directly on the preheated grill grates. Close the grill and cook the corn for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally. The exact cooking time may vary depending on the heat of your grill.
  10. Check for doneness: To check if the corn is done, insert a fork or skewer into the thickest part of the corn cob. The kernels should be tender and easily pierced. If needed, continue grilling for a few more minutes until the desired tenderness is achieved.
  11. Check for doneness: To check if the corn is done, carefully peel back a small section of the husk and check the kernels. They should be tender and cooked through. If the corn needs more time, re-wrap it in the husks and continue grilling for a few more minutes.
  12. Serve and enjoy: Once the corn is grilled to your liking, remove it from the grill. Let it cool for a minute or two before serving.
  13. Serve and enjoy: Once the corn is grilled to your liking, remove it from the grill. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
