Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 ears corn, husked and cleaned
4 slices bacon
4 dashes chili powder

Steps:

  • Wash the husked corn.
  • Wrap one slice of bacon around each ear. It probably won't cover the entire ear, but be sure it goes from one end to the other. Sprinkle with chili powder to taste.
  • Wrap the corn and bacon and chili powder in heavy aluminum foil and place over medium coals, or medium flame on gas grill.
  • Cook approximately 20-25 minutes. Time will depend on the size of the ears of corn, and how fresh they are.

CHARCOAL GRILLED CORN WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHILE



Charcoal Grilled Corn with Sour Cream and Chile image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 ears fresh sweet corn, in their husks
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon best quality mild chile powder
1/2 cup sour cream, whisked with 1 tablespoon milk to thin
1/3 cup grated anejo or romano cheese

Steps:

  • Pull all of the husks back from the corn without removing it. Pull off and remove all the silk, using a soft brush to get the last stubborn strands. Return the husks to their original position and twist the tops.
  • In a large deep bowl, cover the corn with cold water and weight down with a plate to keep them all submerged. Let the corn soak for 1 hour. Meanwhile, light a charcoal fire and let it burn until the coals are medium hot. Set the grill rack 4 inches from the hot coals. Lay the corn on the grill rack and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, turning frequently with tongs. Pull back some husks to test the kernels for doneness if desired. Remove from the grill, let cool for a few minutes and pull the husks back to the base again so that you can use them as a handle for picking up the corn. Set aside until ready to serve the rest of the meal. Brush the corn with the butter and return it to the grill rack for about 10 minutes, turning frequently, until nicely browned. Sprinkle the corn with the chile powder and pass the sour cream and cheese at the table for guests to help themselves.
