Ingredients
Scale
- 4 full-size corn on the cob (ears)
- ¼ tsp oil (if using a griddle pan, optional)
- 30 g butter or dairy-free alternative (plain/herb/garlic/chilli/dulse/etc)
- seasoning (salt/pepper/herbs/chilli flakes/etc)
Instructions
- Prepare all butters and seasonings ahead of time.
- If the corn has husks, peel them back and remove the silk to expose the kernels.
- Preheat the barbecue, grill, or griddle pan to high heat.
- If using a griddle pan, lightly brush it with oil; this is not required for BBQ or grill.
- Place the corn cobs on the grill or in the griddle pan.
- Turn the corn frequently until it turns a deeper yellow color with slight charring, about 8 to 10 minutes. Do not overcook.
- Remove the corn from heat and serve immediately with melted butter and seasonings.
Notes
For extra flavor, try different butter variations like garlic or herb butter.
Make sure not to overcook the corn to keep it juicy and tender.
Using a grill basket can prevent the corn from falling through the grates.
