     Husk Grilled corn with Herb Butter

Category   Salads - Soups - Sidedishes
Sub Category   Gameday-Tailgate
Servings   6
Preptime   30 minutes

Ingredients
6 ears of corn in their husks
6 tablespoons of butter, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of pepper
1 tablespoon of minced fresh herbs like chives or cilantro
2 limes cut in half
 

Instructions
Prep corn- Remove dry, outer husks and any loose silk that might ignite on the grill. Herb Butter- add ½ teaspoon of both salt and pepper to 6 tablespoons of butter at room temperature. Mix with a fork. Take a 14X12 inch piece of foil and fold in half to make it 7X12. Crimp the corners up and make a boat to hold the herb butter. It needs to be long enough to hold an ear of corn. Put the butter in the boat and take butter and ears of corn out to the grill.
Prep Grill- heat grill for 15 minutes on high with the lid closed. Scrape with a grill brush and wipe with an oiled cloth. Steam the corn in the husks. Put corn on the grill and cook for 15 minutes with the grill lid down, turning every 3 minutes. Husks should get very black. While the corn is still hot, remove the bottom end of the ear with a large knife and peel off the husks and silk. It should fall of easily. Holding the hot corn in a towel will help keep your hands from burning. Roll each ear in the foil butter boat until they are well coated. Return to the grill and cook for another 5 minutes, turning every minute. Remove from grill when corn is lightly charred and re-roll in the butter. Variations- add fresh minced herbs to the butter like chives or cilantro and squeeze grilled limes over the buttered corn.
Leaving the corn in its husk traps just enough moisture to lightly steam it and protect the kernels from toughening over the high heat of the grill. After the husks have blackened, we cut off the base of the ear and easily peel away the husk and silk. A butter flavored with spicy brown mustard and smoked paprika seasons the corn before it is returned to the grill to lightly caramelize.
