How To Make Grill Corn?

It’s time to talk about the best way to grill corn on the cobs. There’re a few things you need to know before firing up the grill.

1. Remove The Husks.

This will allow the corn to cook evenly and prevent them from burning. If you’re using fresh corn, you’ll need to remove the husks and silk. To do this, simply pull back the husks and use your hands to remove the silk.

2. Soak The Corn In Water.

The soak will keep the corn moist while grilling. Just make sure to drain it before putting it on the grill. Also, Fresh corn must be soaked before grilling in order to remove the tough outer layer. You may also use frozen or thawed corn if you’re using fresh corn, but it will take longer to cook.

3. Season The Corn.

This step is important to give the corn flavor. There are many ways you can season your corn, so feel free to experiment. I recommend using a mixture of salt, pepper, and butter. Other popular seasonings include garlic, chili powder, cumin, and lime juice.

4. Preheat The Grill.

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before adding the corn. By spraying the corn with cooking oil, you will stop it from sticking to the grill and make sure it cooks evenly.

5. Grill The Corn.

Place the corn on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping every few minutes. The corn is done when it’s tender and slightly charred.

6. Remove The Corn From The Grill.

Once the corn is cooked, remove it from the grill and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Then, it’s time to enjoy!

Variations On Grilled Corn That Will Tantalize Your Taste Buds!

The great thing about grilled corn is that there are so many ways to enjoy it. It depends on your personal preferences. Below are a few ideas given:

1. Add A Dollop Of Butter.

Add a pat of butter toss per ear of corn for a richer flavor. Then, season with salt and pepper to taste.

2. Sprinkle With Parmesan Cheese.

If you’re looking for a cheesy flavor, then sprinkle each ear of corn with Parmesan cheese. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder or chili flakes.

3. Add A Touch Of Sweetness.

A drizzle of honey will add a touch of sweetness to your corn. Another option is to brush the corn with barbecue sauce or add a sprinkle of brown sugar.

4. Give It A Kick.

For a spicy twist, add some chopped jalapeños or red pepper flakes to your corn. If you want to give this some extra flavor, try hot sauce or salsa.

5. Go Mexican-Style.

Sprinkle your corn with cotija cheese and chopped cilantro for a Mexican-inspired dish. For extra flavor, you can also add a squeeze of lime juice.
