MacKenzie Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 My first of the season, rubbed with oil and place over coals until the sugars caramelize. Then place in a pan with butter, salt and pepper, seal and leave pan on indirect side for 5-10 mins. Plated.
tony b Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 Glad to see that your corn has finally come in, MacKenzie. I had fresh corn for dinner tonight, too. We're on the down slope of our season. Not sure how much longer I'll be able to get the local stuff? I prefer to leave mine in the husks and just toss them straight onto the grill. If you like the carmelization, it just takes a little longer to cook in the husks than when it's exposed. It's all good in the end!
CeramicChef Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 Ahhh, MacKenzie! Alas, your cook just drove a stake through my heart! Wonderful cook and a sumptuous feast I'm sure. We have no corn down here in Oklahoma! And those beautiful pictures make my little tummy yearn for some wonderful sweet corn! Kudos!
tinyfish Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 Simple yet so so delicious. How do you keep your grills so clean.
DennisLinkletter Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 The blackened/charred husks can impart a subtle smokiness which can be nice too.. Love the two tone corn..
ckreef Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 Nice corn cook. Corn season is winding down if not over at this time of the year for central GA.
bosco Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 Corn just wrapped up here as our local booth just shut down. I have yet to do corn on grill without husks. Now I want to try !! Nice photos
MacKenzie Posted September 3, 2015 Author Report Posted September 3, 2015 Finally I had some corn, I wait for it all year and I can tell from the posts I'm not alone;) Tinyfish, I use a curly stainless steel scrubber;)
tony b Posted September 3, 2015 Report Posted September 3, 2015 Just be a bit careful with those wire scrubbies; some nasty horror stories out there about folks inadvertently eating the wires that come off those and ending up in the hospital. Not just an urban myth either. I got rid of mine years ago and went with the grill floss.
MacKenzie Posted September 3, 2015 Author Report Posted September 3, 2015 Tony, I had heard that about the wire brushes but not about the curly kate thing. I cleaned with it and then washed it off under the tap and went over it with a dish cloth. I will be careful:) Thanks.
tony b Posted September 4, 2015 Report Posted September 4, 2015 Whew! Never too safe!! More corn for dinner tonight! I asked the roadside stand vendor how much longer we'd expect to get fresh corn. She was optimistic that it would last til the end of the month!! Woo, Hoo!!!
