Grilling Corn On The Cob

Cooking Corn On The BBQ - Fast, Easy
How To Cook Corn On The Cob

There are a number of ways for Grilling Corn and many of them work well. The two recipes below are both very good ways that explain how to cook corn on the cob using a grill.










I BBQ corn on the cob at home and on the restaurant patio during the nice summer months.

The aroma of barbequing food outdoors seems to draw customers from miles around. It is the best form of advertising I have ever used. :-)

While you are thinking about grilling corn, you should also consider grilling asparagus and / or other vegetables. It is really a wonderful way to prepare your veggies and if your barbecue is ready to take over some of the summer cooking chores, you might as well have it do the entire job for particular meals.


Grilled Corn on the Cob
One Way To BBQ Corn On The Cob
Preparation time: 5 minutes. Serves 8.

Cooking Conversion Table

Ingredients:

  • 8 Medium ears corn, husked and de-silked with ends trimmed
  • 8 tablespoons of butter at room temperature
  • 1/2 tablespoon sea salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Heavy-duty aluminum foil

    Instructions:

  • Combine butter, salt and pepper and mix well
  • Center each ear of corn on a square of heavy-duty aluminum foil
  • Generously coat each ear of corn with the butter mixture
  • Fold in ends of aluminum foil and roll up ears of corn in the foil
  • Place corn on the grill for 10 - 12 minutes with cover closed but periodically turn the corn

    Some people (more and more) do not like using aluminum or aluminum foil when they cook food. There may be the possibility of contaminants attaching themselves to our food. I understand this and so I give you another way to BBQ corn on the cob.


    Grilled Corn on the Cob
    Another Way To Cook Corn On The Cob Using Your BBQ
    Preparation time: 35 minutes. Serves 8.

    Cooking Conversion Table

    Ingredients:

  • 8 Medium ears corn, husked and de-silked with ends trimmed
  • 8 tablespoons of butter at room temperature
  • Kitchen string or twine

    Instructions:

  • Pull back the husks on the corn but do not remove
  • Remove the silk from the corn and cut off the very end
  • Soak the corn in cold water for about 30 minutes
  • Remove the corn and pat dry
  • Brush each corn on the cob with a generous amount of butter
  • Fold the husks back down and around the corn and twist the ends or tie the ends closed (I use kitchen twine)
  • Place the corn on the grill directly over the heat, turning the heat down to medium or medium-low
  • Cook the corn for about 8 minutes but turn each cob frequently so as not to burn

    When done, the corn should be spotted with a little brown but not totally charred (a little is fine)

    This particular method (using the husks) is attractive and appreciated by many restaurant guests as they observe the cooks at the BBQ during the summer months on the patio.


    Grilling corn is easy as you can see. Enjoy your grilled corn on the cob and the company of those you share it with!
