I can still remember the first time I tasted grilled corn on the cob. It was a 4th of July barbecue in Cedarburg, Wisconsin. The fire department had giant grills filled with corn-on-the-cob. To serve they just pulled back the husks, dipped it in a can of melted butter, sprinkled it with salt. Try my simple grilled corn recipe. Truly amazing!
This is a super easy side dish for any type of barbecue. + the topping options are endless. Set-up a corn topping station and let everyone get creative!
Simple Grilled Corn
The best way to make corn, in my opinion, is on the grill. + it's so simple and easy, requires no prep and topping options are endless. My favorite way to eat this is with just a couple of grind of salt and pepper - no butter. Buy corn at its peak for the best results. See 10 amazing toppings for corn on the cob.
Instructions
-
Soak corn in husks in a tub of water for about an hour.
-
Cook corn on a hot grill, I want my grill to be between 450 and 500 degrees, turn the corn occasionally, until cooked through and it is well charred on all sides, about 8 to 10 minutes.
-
Serve immediately.
-
Have a grilling mitt handy, to pull back the husk and remove as much silk as possible.
-
Top with salt, pepper and maybe butter. You decide.
Recipe Notes

Cayenne pepper and a squeeze of lime

Vampiro Tequila Cocktail with Jalisco Sangrita
Vampiro Tequila Cocktail with Jalisco Sangrita. This spicy tequila cocktail mixed with a traditional Jalisco Sangrita. Sangrita’s are my new cocktail obsession. Sangrita or “little blood” has traditionally been served as a chaser for excellent quality tequila. It would have been a mixture of fruit juices and finely ground chili pepper. Many sangrita recipes call for tomato juice, but that would not have been part of the traditional recipe, the original recipe would have been made from leftover juice from fresh fruit salads and changed based on the fruits used.
Today’s cocktail culture is creating very intriguing sangritas as an ingredient in some pretty amazing tequila cocktails. This recipe calls for a combination of grapefruit, orange, and lime with a touch of spicy jalapeno pepper.
