Ingredients
- 4 large garlic cloves (pressed)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick/ 8tbsp)
- 1/2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- 10 -15 fresh ears of corn with the husks on.
Steps
-
Trim the tops and bottoms of the corn husks; the hairy parts tend to catch fire and soak them with husk on for 20 minutes in water before grilling.
-
Preheat the BBQ on high heat (500°F). Arrange the corn husks over the grill. Reduce to medium/high (400°F), cover and cook 18-20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes until husks are blackened on all sides.
-
While the corn is grilling, melt 1 stick butter in a small saucepan. Press 4 cloves garlic over the butter and heat just to a simmer. Add 1/2 tbsp Sugar, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp pepper, 1/2 tsp cumin and lime juice. Stir to combine. Heat another minute and remove from heat.
-
Remove Corn from the grill, carefully peel husk off but don't rip it off, instead use it as a handle.
-
Generously brush corn with butter mixture and serve immediately.
