Ingredients

  • 3-4 large ears of sweet corn shucked
  • 8 Tbsp butter
  • 1 Tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Peel the outer husk and silk from the ears of corn.
  • Create a foil packet from aluminum foil torn to about 12" in length.
  • Place an ear of corn in the center of the foil, then top with butter and salt and pepper.
  • Seal edges of the packet by pulling up the long sides of the foil and creating a 2-inch fold at the top.
  • Fold up the sides of foil with a double fold to lock in all of the ingredients.
  • Heat grill to medium heat and place packets on the BBQ.
  • Grill for 40 minutes.
  • Open packets carefully and garnish with parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Help prevent the corn from sticking to the sheets of foil by spraying the inside with cooking spray or brushing with olive oil.
  • Make full foil packet meals by adding chicken breast, summer sausage, or salmon to the foil pack corn cobs.
