Grilled Herb Butter Corn
If any of you want a great recipe for grilled corn on the cob, this is it. I made it tonight and it was simply delicious.
6 ears of corn 6 pieces of twine 1 medium shallot 3 tablespoons of margarine 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley 1 teaspoon of fresh taragon 1 teaspoon of freshly grated lemon peel 1/2 teaspoon of salt 1 1/8 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper. 1. Light grille with medium heat 2. Pull back husks 3/4 the way down on each ear of corn and remove silk. In large pot, place corn with husks in water and let soak for 15 minutes. Soaking corn will prevent it from burning on grille. 3. In a small bowl, stir shallots, butter, parsley, tarragon, lemon peel, salt and pepper. 4. Remove corn from water, drain well. With pastry brush, brush each ear with butter mixture. Pull husks back up and tie with twine at the ends of the ears. 5. Place corn on hot grille. Turns corn occasionally and cook until husks are brown and dry. 20-30 minutes. This is definitely the best grilled corn I've had. Between the fresh lemon peel and tarragon, it was just delicious. Butter mixture

That looks great!
I wonder how it would be if you skipped the soaking and tying part and brushed the butter on at the end. I like my corn naked when it goes on the grill.

I haven't tried that James, but I am guessing it would turn out not near as moist and juicy. I think the idea of having the husks tied up is to preserve the moisture and keep it nice and juicy. Having said that though, I've only cooked corn on the cob on the grille a few times so I'm not all that experienced with it.

Ya, it does stay moist like that. I like the taste of the browned kernels though, it seems to bring out the sugar content.
It looks like they had the same idea at the Olympics:

I love grilled corn!
+1.. I'm with 6MTzer. As far as preventing the burning on the grill, I like a small amount of hearty toasted flavor on my "ear" kind of like on the pic above. There's also different types of corn you can use. In my case I prefer the white corn. For soups and stews, I prefer sweet yellow. It looks like you have some sort of Hybrid.

Sounds good Shane. I'm like the others when I grill corn on the barby, they are naked. I like the kernels to just start to turn colour, it is so sweet when done that way along with my garlic butter, yummm
 and fresh ground pepper.I'm getting hungry I will definitely try your recipe, it sounds great.

Do you put the butter on before grilling? That would take some extra attention. I had some corn last week I found at a farmers market in NY that was so good I was eating it raw.

Grilled corn is awesome. Another flavored butter that is great with it is chipotle lime butter. The fatty butter really mellows out the spice of the chipotle.
Mince up 1-2 chipotle in adobo sauce and add it to a softened stick of butter. Squeeze in a some lime juice (i forget how much, maybe 1/2 to 1 lime) and mix together.
