Tips:

  • Choose the right corn: Look for fresh, plump ears of corn with tightly packed, milky kernels. Avoid ears with brown or shriveled kernels.
  • Prepare the corn properly: Remove the husks and silk from the corn, leaving the cob intact. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Season the corn generously: Use a variety of spices and herbs to flavor the corn, such as chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley.
  • Grill the corn over medium-high heat: This will help to char the corn slightly and give it a smoky flavor. Make sure to rotate the corn frequently so that it cooks evenly.
  • Serve the corn immediately: Grilled corn is best enjoyed fresh off the grill. You can serve it with a variety of dipping sauces, such as butter, sour cream, or salsa.
