Grilled corn! A very convenient side dish for barbecue, it is easy to make and has a strong aroma. Just grill it on a hot grill for 10 minutes, then brush it with melted butter or chili for an even better taste.<\/p>
Best of all, with our Corten steel BBQ grill<\/strong><\/a> or ceramic BBQ grill<\/strong><\/a>, you can make it fast and fuss-free.<\/p> Here are two easy methods \u2014 both delicious in their own way \u2014 depending on the type of grill you\u2019re using.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t There are so many ways to grill corn, and they’re all delicious! You can grill it in or out of the husk, directly over the charcoal, or on the grill.<\/p> I really love grilling corn, and I think the best way to do it is to husk it and cook it on the grill, not directly over the charcoal or heat source. I’ll tell you why:<\/p> I absolutely love corn on the cob! It’s so easy to prepare and the kernels are always juicy. I know some people don’t like the flavour of the husk, but I find it adds a delicious touch. And even if the kernels don’t burn, it’s still a great way to cook them. The best part is the butter, isn’t it?! \ud83d\ude0a Go ahead and husk it, then wrap it up in foil. You’ll get these juicy kernels that are just like grilled corn in the husk. But, I have to say, this method does require the most preparation.<\/p> I really love to cook it on the grill \u2013 it’s my favourite way to prepare it! It’s a compromise, but I’m sure we can all learn to live with it!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Our Corten steel BBQs<\/strong> are perfect for cooking over open flames and intense heat.

Grilling directly over the charcoal or grill flame gives the best charring, but there’s a little risk of drying out some kernels before they’re all cooked through.<\/p>
