Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepping the Corn

    Remove the husks and silk from the corn on the cob, ensuring they are clean and ready for grilling.

  2. 2

    Soaking the Corn (Optional)

    For added moisture, soak the corn in water for 10-15 minutes, which will help to steam the corn while grilling.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Corn

    Place the corn directly on the grill grates. Grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the kernels are tender and slightly charred.

Seasoning and Serving

  1. 5

    Prepare the Butter Mixture

    In a small bowl, combine softened butter with salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and lime juice. Mix well until fully combined.

  2. 6

    Apply the Butter

    Once the corn is done grilling, remove it from the grill and brush the butter mixture generously over each ear of corn.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the grilled corn on the cob warm with extra lime wedges on the side for squeezing, if desired.
