How to make Grilled Corn

corn

melted butter (, salted)

butter (, salted (not optional))

parsley ((optional))

Preheat BBQ (grill side) until very hot.

Peel husk off the corn.

Place corn on the BBQ (no oil required).

Cook for 10 minutes, turning every couple of minutes, until there's little charred bits and the kernels are tender when pierced with a knife, but still JUICY! Overcooked corn is shrivelled, dry and sad.

In the last minute, brush with melted butter and roll around.

Serve corn with softened butter, sprinkled with parsley if desired!

Fresh corn wrapped in bacon cooked in the husk in it's own juices and a dash of butter.

Grilled corn on the cob, tested five ways — with the husk on (soaked or dry), pulled back and tied, fully husked, or wrapped in foil. Each method gives a unique balance of char, tenderness, and smoky flavor.

Best Grilled Corn Recipe

olive oil

butter (for serving)

salt (to taste)

Parmesan, lemon zest, chili powder, lime wedges, black pepper

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Place soaked or dry cobs (with husks fully intact) directly on the grill. Soaking whole corn cobs (with husks) in water for 1–2 hours helps prevent burning and adds steam for juicier kernels, but grilling dry is quicker—just watch carefully for flare-ups.

Grill for 15–20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, until the husks are evenly charred.  Let cool slightly, then peel back the husks and remove the silk.

To develop a nice char, grill the peeled corn for 1–2 more minutes.

Husk-on methods:

Peel the husks back without removing them and remove the silk. Tie the husks back and wrap the ends in foil.

Brush the exposed kernels lightly with oil.

Grill for 10–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes, until well charred.

Tied-back husk method:

Remove the husks and silk completely.

Brush the corn with oil

Grill for 10–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes until charred all over.

Husk-removed method:

Remove the husks and silk.

Brush with oil or butter and wrap tightly in foil.

Grill for 15–18 minutes, turning a few times.

Unwrap and serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Foil-wrapped method:

All of these look great, thanks for sharing! I’m excited to try the tied-back husks method.
