Grilled Corn Convert

Yes Steve, I am now a convert. Until now, I've always opted for the steamed corn-on-the-cob in-husk method. As your book states, "If you follow my huskless technique...it will make you a convert"". Yep, tried it tonight for independence day. I'm a convert.

Tonights menu was made entirely on the grill...

* Pulled smoked Beef Roast (Oak, Hickory, Cherry)
* Grilled baked potatoes coated with butter and kosher salt and wrapped in foil
* Grilled corn on the cob huskless
* Grilled (steamed in a pan) squash and zuchini
* Grilled pineapple

Man, we enjoyed it.

Hey man, glad you signed up on the board.

I guess I'm a convert too. Man that corn was super, along with the potato, veggies, and beef!!!

Add another "me too" to the list. I smoked 6 racks of ribs on Monday, very near perfect, but everyone kept raving about the grilled corn as their favorite part of the meal. I had to remove the husks instead of tying them back as handles due to surface area constraints, but I imagine that presentation would be even better.

My female friend, who usually boils or steams vegetables to a near mushy consistancy, finally bit into the golden brown part of an ear of grilled corn on Sunday. (She usually avoids it) The next thing I heard was "WOW! Is that ever good!" I told her that I've been trying to tell her that since I got the new grill. Now she wants me to grill every ear so that they are golden brown all around. ( I was trying to keep her ears the way she liked it.) At least now I can cook all the ears the same way!

Good Deal. Man, I feel like I'm still tasting it today (fondly - nothing weird there). The irony is I grew up HATING veggies - even corn. Now I like them all of a sudden at 41. Maybe thats what they mean by "life begins at 40".

Welcome to the board, CLudwigsen!

You can add me to the list as well. There is no better way to cook corn IMO.

my grilled corn managed to convert the better part of my family.

Grill extras, make corn salsa with the leftovers, bunch of recipes on the 'net.
