directions

  • Heat grill to medium hot.
  • Pull husks back from corn cob, keeping them attached.
  • Remove as much of the stringy silk as possible and replace the husks, covering the kernals again.
  • Use kitchen twine to secure the husks at the top of the cobs.
  • Place tied corn cobs in a bucket of cold water to soak for 1 hour.
  • Remove corn from the bucket and place on the grill.
  • Cook for about 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, until the corn has steamed and the husks are quite charred.
  • Take corn off of the grill, discard the husks and serve piping hot with butter, salt and pepper.

  1. Perfect recipe! we were looking for something that involved soaking and keeping the husks on and this was it. Delicious! Thanks for the keepr
     
  2. This is pretty much the way I grill corn, except that I don't bother to tie the ends with twine and soak them in a kitchen sink full of ice water, weighed down with a heavy plate. I don't test for doneness by the way the husks char. I just test one kernel on the corn to see if it is done. And usually I cook on lower heat with meats etc., and the husks don't char so much anyway, if they are soaked properly. Thanks for posting! Great recipe!

I am a wife and mom of 2 vibrant little boys. They love to create and cook in the kitchen... I love their curiosity and willingness to try new foods and techniques as I introduce them. I love to cook... always have. Thanks to my father for this culinary passion! While I am addicted to collecting cookbooks, my dad taught me to experiment in the kitchen and gave me the gift of knowing that creative cooking doesn't have to come from a book.
