4 ears of corn
2 - 12 ounce cans seagram's ginger ale
1 - 7 & ¾ can el pato tomato sauce
1 tablespoon turbinado sugar
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon chipotle pepper seasoning
1 stick un-salted butter softened
if you can't find the chipotle seasoning, you can use chipotle pepper or cayenne pepper.

  • 3. After that time poke a hole in the corner of the bag and carefully put the marinade in a pot.
  • 4. Return the corn to the refrigerator till you are ready to cook them.
  • 5. Cook the marinade on a rather high heat, till it is reduced to less than 1 cup.
  • 6. If it starts to bubble up to the top of the pot, stir it with a whisk or heat safe spoon.
  • 7. Once the sauce has reduced let this mixture get cold and mix this with the butter and set aside, if you are using it later put this in the refrigerator.
  • 8. Make sure the mixture is "not" warm; you don't want to melt the butter.
  • 9. At this point you can grille the corn for about 10 minutes, depending on how small or large your corn is.
  • 10. Slather " I just love that word " the spread on the corn and enjoy.
