CORN ON THE COB WITH LEMON-PEPPER BUTTER



Corn on the Cob with Lemon-Pepper Butter image

Roasting fresh-picked corn is as old as the Ozark hills where I was raised. My Grandpa Mitchell always salted and peppered his butter on the edge of his plate before spreading it on his corn, and I did the same as a kid. Today, I continue the tradition by serving lemon-pepper butter with roasted corn-it's a favorite! -Allene Bary-Cooper, Wichita Falls, Texas

Categories     Easy

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 ears of corn
4 Tbsp (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, (softened at room temp)
1/4 tsp salt
Pinch of pepper (or to taste)
1 Tbsp fresh dill (finely chopped)
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Cream 4 Tbsp butter with a fork in a medium bowl.
  • Stir in 1/4 tsp salt, pinch of pepper and 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice and mix until smooth. The lemon juice will seem like it isn't blending, but keep mixing for a couple minutes and it will happen.
  • Stir in fresh chopped dill until well incorporated. Keep the prepared butter at room temp until ready to serve corn.
  • Preheat Grill to Med/High. Shuck corn. Leave the corn whole or break corn into halves or thirds if serving a large crowd. Wrap each ear of corn with a generous sheet of heavy duty foil making sure all sides are covered. If using regular kitchen-standard foil, double wrap the corn so it doesn't scorch.
  • Grill foil-wrapped corn with the lid closed over medium/high heat, rotating the corn every 2 -3 minutes to keep from scorching. Grill for 15-20 minutes. Ours was done at 18 minutes. Once corn is finished grilling, remove foil and brush generously with lemon dill butter while warm.
