plump)<\/li>\n<li>Soak your corn in a pot of cold water for about 10 minutes prior to grilling<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re grilling your corn bare (without husks), brush it with a small amount of olive oil before it hits the grill<\/li>\n<li>Be sure you have a full <a

holders <\/a>while eating so your guests aren&#8217;t stuck with messy fingers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Grilled Corn in Aluminum Foil<\/h3>\n<p>Corn should grill for about 15-20 minutes on medium heat\u00a0when it&#8217;s wrapped in aluminum foil.\u00a0 If you choose to soak your corn beforehand, just remove it from the water and coat it with any olive oil, butter or seasonings you would like before wrapping it in the foil. \u00a0If you prefer to spread butter on your corn after it has been cooked, feel\u00a0free to try out olive oil before grilling and butter afterward!\u00a0 Be sure to rotate the corn every five minutes or so throughout grilling time.<\/p>\n<h3>Grilled Corn in\u00a0the Husks<\/h3>\n<p>Once again, soak your corn in cold water before grilling if you wish.\u00a0 It is best to gently peel back the outer husks and remove any silk (the little hair-like pieces) from the corn, then put the husks back in place before soaking.\u00a0 After removing the corn from the pot and shaking off any excess water, place them\u00a0on a\u00a0grill using medium heat for 15-20 minutes.\u00a0 Again, be sure to rotate your corn to ensure it cooks evenly throughout!\u00a0 Once the\u00a0corn has cooled enough to touch,\u00a0remove\u00a0each ear from its husk, season or butter\u00a0to your liking and enjoy!<\/p>\n<h3>Grilled\u00a0Corn\u00a0Bare<\/h3>\n<p>Grilling corn without any sort of outer layer such as the foil or husks is still a great method, but it does require a bit more attention.\u00a0 This route is the best one if you like to see some char on your corn.\u00a0 You&#8217;ll want to keep the grill lid down, and rotate the corn\u00a0about each minute on medium heat.\u00a0\u00a0Because the kernels are on direct heat this time, they are more likely to overcook if not rotated frequently.\u00a0\u00a0Using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/MovingSupplies\/Propane-Grilling\/Grilling-Tailgating-accessories\/Corn-On-The-Cob-Grill-Basket?id=15997&amp;utm_campaign=uhaulsm&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=propane&amp;utm_content=20160614-grillingtimesgrilledcorn\">grill basket\u00a0<\/a>will make it much easier to rotate\u00a0each ear of corn simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>No matter how you choose to grill your corn, feel free to experiment with different flavors by adding things like\u00a0garlic, cilantro,\u00a0and pepper.\u00a0 Whether your corn is\u00a0simply buttered or seasoned with a plethora of ingredients,\u00a0it will be the hit of your barbecue this summer!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What are some special tricks you use while grilling your corn?\u00a0 Tell us in the comments section below.\u00a0
