It’s summer and farmers markets are bursting with the perfect side dish, corn! This is by far one of my favorite indulgences of the season and so easy to prepare for a quick side dish to accompany anything.
There are so many different ways to cook corn on the cob but my favorite is grilling.
Grilled Corn on the Cob Ingredients
- corn on the cob
- butter, melted
- garlic powder
- black pepper
- sea salt
How to Grill Corn on the Cob
Melt butter in a microwave-safe dish. Add in garlic powder, black pepper, and sea salt. Mix until fully combined.
Place corn on the cob on a long sheet of aluminum foil. The foil needs to be long enough to fully wrap the corn, so make sure it’s a nice, long piece. Slather the corn with your garlic butter sauce.
Fold one-half of the foil over the corn. Tuck it in, then fold in the other half. Finish the foil pack by tucking in both the top and bottom end nice and snug.
Add the foil pack of corn on the cob to your grill over medium-low heat. Grill for 30 minutes.
