Smoked Corn on the Cob with Bourbon Butter image

Sweet summer corn is lightly smoked and covered in a subtle, yet delicious bourbon-cinnamon butter. If you already have other foods going in your smoker at a higher temp, throw the corn in - just reduce the time slightly. I like using maple or fruit woods, but for a smokier flavor, use hickory or mesquite.

Time 2h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 ears fresh corn
1 stick butter, softened
1 fluid ounce bourbon whiskey
⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
wood chips, soaked
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Pull corn husks back to remove and discard the silk. Pull husks back over the corn. Soak corn in a pot of water for 1 hour.
  • Place butter in a small dish. Add bourbon and cinnamon and carefully mix with a fork until well incorporated.
  • Preheat the smoker to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
  • Place corn, unstacked, onto wire racks. Place the racks into the smoker. Add wood chips according to manufacturer's directions. Smoke until corn is tender, turning halfway through, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Pull husks off corn and spread the bourbon butter over corn. Sprinkle with salt.
