How to Grill Corn

Method 1: Grilling Corn In The Husk

Gently fold back the husk on your cobs (but don’t remove it), and pull out as much of the silk as you can. Gently fold the husks back up after the silk is removed to create your cute little steam tent. Soak your corn if you’re choosing to do so.

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450 degrees F).

Place corn with the husks folded up directly on grates and grill for about 20-22 minutes, rotating to ensure even charring around the husk.

Corn is done when kernels are soft and bright golden yellow and there are tiny bits of char that sneak through the husk flaps. YUM!

Once cooled enough, serve corn by pulling back the husk and using it like a handle OR remove completely. Little pokey corn holders optional.

Method 2: Grilling Corn In Foil

Completely remove husks and silks from corn. Wrap cobs completely in heavy duty aluminum foil (you can sneak a little butter/olive oil and any other seasoning in there if you like!).

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450 degrees F).

Place foiled corn directly on grates. Grill for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally.

Corn is done when kernels are soft and bright golden yellow.

Method 3: Grilling Corn On The Grates

Completely remove husks and silks from corn (don’t worry, any remaining silk bits will burn off).

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450 degrees F).

Place cobs directly on grates and grill for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally for even cooking.

Corn is done when kernels are bright golden yellow and is evenly charred on all sides.
