Last Night’s Dinner

BBQ Chicken and Grilled Corn

BBQ Chicken and Grilled Corn

With summer winding to an end, we took the opportunity last night to prepare one of our favorite grilled meals, bbq chicken and grilled corn on the cob.  Although you can grill corn during the winter that you have stored in your freezer, there’s just nothing quite like the sweetness of freshly picked corn during the summer.  If you’ve never had grilled corn you are missing one of life’s great pleasures.  It’s so easy to prepare and adds so much to a meal.  I encourage you to give this recipe a try while there’s still really fresh corn on the cob available.

Grilled Corn on the Cob

Fresh Corn on the Cob in Husks
Butter
Garlic Powder
Fresh Rosemary (can use dry if fresh not available)
Fresh Thyme (can use dry if fresh not available)

Carefully pull the husks away from the cob, leaving them intact at the base of the cob.  Remove the silks.  Rub butter all over the cob and then sprinkle with garlic powder, rosemary & thyme.  Wrap the husks back around the cob.  Wrap the corn in foil and then poke several holes in the foil to let the smoke from the grill penetrate the corn.  Place the cobs on a hot grill for 15 minutes and then turn over and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes.  Set the corn over to the side of the grill away from the direct heat and continue to grill the rest of your dinner.

We served the corn with Grilled BBQ Chicken, Yukon Gold Mashed Potatoes, and Macaroni & Cheese, all of which are available from our Market & Deli.
