You can find this at any fair. I love the heat of the chili mixed with the sweet corn. This is truly Easy Street Corn.
It is the summer which only means that your grill is fired up, scrubbed clean, and ready to go. Am I right? I know you all want to think that throwing a few sucked ears of corn on the grill is all you need to do but I can tell you there is a lot more to it for great grilled corn.
Tips for the perfect grilled corn
- Grilling the corn over direct heat gives the corn ideal doneness. I like to turn my grill onto a medium heat, get it nice and hot let it go for about 7-8 minutes each side.
- When the corn is done it will turn bright yellow and become more opaque than fresh. Fresh Cobs take about 15 minutes to cook in total.
