It's corn season! Delicious sweet corn is here! Often, when we corn on the cob it comes half-peeled so you can see how the corn looks. This makes it rather difficult to BBQ the corn in the husks as so many recipes suggest. So, after a bit of testing, I discovered that you can, indeed, successfully cook corn on the cob on the BBQ by wrapping it in foil - and after our BBQ ran out of propane, I discovered you can also cook it in the oven! Boiling is still an easy corn on the cob cooking solution, but I love making corn on the cob in the BBQ using this method. Your corn is pre-buttered and can be seasoned any way you like! Enjoy!
Corn on the Cob in a BBQ or Oven (without husks)
Makes however many you want!
Remove husks and silks from corn. Using a large piece of extra wide foil (piece should be ~12" x 24"), place the corn on one side of the foil. Put 1/2 Tbsp butter in with the corn. Sprinkle the corn with salt & pepper, or any spices you desire.
Wrap the corn so it's wrapped 2-3 times around with foil (to avoid butter leaking out). Twist the ends to seal, like on hard-candies OR fold edges onto ends of corn first, then roll (like a burrito wrap).
OR
Cook in the oven at 400F for 20 minutes. No need to rotate.
Carefully open your hot foil packets. Enjoy!!!

Corn on the cob, with edges folded inward first rather than twisted on the ends after rolling.
Cook on the BBQ over medium to medium-low heat (~400F) for 20 minutes, to allow corn to properly steam. Rotate corn 3-4 times to allow an even cooking.OR
