How long does corn stay on the grill?
Usually about 15-20 minutes. With the silks on, it might take more like 30.
How do you know when corn on the husk is done on the grill?
It just needs to be hot and tender to be done, so pull back on a husk and press to see. It might squirt a little liquid out when pressed gently, that means it’s ready to go.
What should I top grilled corn on the cob with?
Butter and salt is always a great option. But we love the idea of adding some herbs and lime in there as well.

- 1 lime, half for the zest & juice, and the rest to garnish
- 1 Tbs. cilantro, finely chopped
- 2 Tbs. butter, softened at room temperature

- Mix 2 Tbs. softened butter, 1 Tbs. finely chopped cilantro, the juice and zest of half a lime, salt & pepper to taste (optional).
- Husk the corn and brush on the butter mixture.
