Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ears corn on the cob
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter for grilling
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, allowing up to 15 minutes for heating.
- Remove the husks and silk from each ear of corn, rinsing them to eliminate any debris. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Brush the corn kernels with olive oil or butter, then place them on the grill. Close the grill lid and cook for 8-12 minutes, turning the cobs occasionally to achieve even charring.
- To check doneness, insert a skewer or fork into the corn. If easily pierced, it’s ready. For those who prefer a softer texture, continue cooking for a few more minutes.
- Allow the corn to cool briefly, then add butter and your preferred seasonings before serving.
Notes
For additional flavor, experiment with various toppings, such as parmesan cheese, herbs, or spices.
Ensure the grill is adequately preheated for the best results.
