STOVE TOP SMOKER CORN-ON-THE-COB



Stove Top Smoker Corn-On-The-Cob image

If there's one reason to buy a stove top smoker, this is it. If I had to actually narrow it down to just one reason, it would be tough, but smoking corn on the cob is definitely in the top five. The kernels keep their sweetness, which is intensified by smoking, and their crunch and juiciness. Stripped from the cob-a very simple procedure-the kernels are an amazing addition to all kinds of salads, soups, and salsas. When it comes to the most bang for the buck, smoked corn is leader of the pack. Use the milder wood chips like alder or cherry, or go for the obvious, corn cob chips. Hickory and Mesquite are quite good also. From the cookbook, "Smokin"

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 ears corn
1 1/2-2 1/2 tablespoons wood chips
olive oil

Steps:

  • Trim the husk and as much silk as you can from the ears.
  • Season the corn by rubbing the ears lightly with olive oil; other seasonings will not penetrate the corn kernels while they're still on the cob.
  • Put wood chips of choice in smoker, cover with smoker tray and smoker rack, place corn on the rack.
  • Smoke the corn on medium heat until the kernels are tender and browed, about 20 minutes.
  • Check the corn for doneness after about 15 minutes.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Choose the right corn. Look for fresh, plump ears with tightly packed kernels. Avoid ears with dry silks or missing kernels.
  • Soak the corn. Soaking the corn in cold water for at least 30 minutes before cooking will help to prevent the kernels from drying out.
  • Use a variety of seasonings. Don't just stick to salt and pepper. Try adding other seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
  • Don't overcook the corn. Corn is best when it is cooked just until the kernels are tender. Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy.
  • Serve the corn immediately. Corn is best when it is served hot off the grill or out of the oven.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you can create delicious smoked corn on the cob that your family and friends will love. Smoked corn on the cob is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, appetizer, or main course. It is also a great way to use up leftover corn.
