Ingredients

  • 6 ears fresh corn
  • 4 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon chili lime seasoning
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the pellet grill on high for 15 minutes.
  • Prepare the corn by carefully pulling down the husks and removing the silks. Rinse corn cobs and then carefully pull the husks back up.
    6 ears fresh corn
  • Optional: Soak husks in water for 30 minutes. Alternatively, generously rinse the outside of the husks under water.
  • Place the corn directly on the grill grates. Rotate the corn a quarter turn every 5 minutes for 15-20 minutes or until the desired doneness.
  • Combine softened butter and chili lime seasoning and set aside.
    4 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon chili lime seasoning
  • Carefully remove the pellet grill corn to a platter and pull back the husks.
  • Evenly spread chili lime butter over the top of the corn. Salt to taste. Top with additional toppings as desired and serve.

Notes

  • When operating a pellet grill, use grilling tongs or a heat glove to avoid burns.
  • Carefully yet quickly rotate the ears of corn to avoid heat loss.
  • If you prefer more char or grill marks on the corn, rotate halfway once during grilling.
  • For less char or grill marks, move the pellet grill corn to the top rack for less direct heat.
  • Soak the husks in water for 30 minutes if desired.
