Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Softened for easy spreading.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Enhances the sweetness of the corn.
  • Pinch Black Pepper Adds a subtle kick.
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Dill Finely chopped for flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice Brightens the dish.
  • 6 ears Corn Husks removed for grilling.

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Chef's Knife

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat, around 400°F.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, salt, black pepper, dill, and lemon juice until well combined.
  3. Spread the seasoned butter evenly over each ear of corn.
  4. Wrap each ear of corn individually in aluminum foil, making sure the ends are sealed tightly.
  5. Place the foil-wrapped corn on the grill and cook for 18 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  6. Carefully remove the corn from the grill and let it sit for a couple of minutes before unwrapping the foil and serving.

Notes

  • Tip 1: Any leftover corn can be wrapped in foil and stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. Just reheat it on the grill or in the oven to enjoy again.
  • Tip 2: If you have an abundance of corn, you can freeze it after grilling. Just cut the kernels off the cob and store them in an airtight container for later use.
  • Tip 3: This dish pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, salads, or even as a filling for tacos. The versatility is endless!
  • Tip 4: During different seasons, consider adding spices or toppings that complement the season, like chili powder in the fall.
  • Tip 5: For a more eco-friendly option, consider using parchment paper or reusable grill mats instead of aluminum foil.
