corn on the cob.
« on: September 20, 2020, 10:29:48 PM »
How do you cook your corn on the pellet grill?   I cooked it naked at 450 but it took almost an hour.  I think its a waste to cook it in the husk, it can't soak up the smoke.  Wife and I thought it came out good!

I never have.  It is 3 minutes in the husk in the microwave.

My brother roasts it at his BBQ trailer because he gets it from the corn farmer whose property he parks on.  I think he roasts it for a few hours in the husk at about 200°-225° on his pit with hickory wood.

I always do them in the husk without soaking whether it's with the pellet grill or charcoal.  They steam themselves basically.  Charcoal takes less time depending on how hot the fire is.  I have put them directly in the coals before and turn them frequently if I'm in a hurry.  As long as the husks are green, the corn won't burn.  They freeze well with the husks on, too.  I never put them in a bag or anything.  Straight in the freezer and they're fine.

This isn't related to cooking corn on the cob, but how to remove the husk and silk easily after cooking.
Haven't tried it yet myself.

Interesting!  I don't see why it wouldn't work with grilled corn.  The corn don't care what the heat source is.  I always have shucked it because that's was my job as a kid when we cooked it.

Here is an experiment I did with corn earlier in the summer:

I've tried it but the heat of the grill cause the silks outside the husks to just disintegrate and you have nothing to hold onto. 


Maybe wrap the silk in foil.

I like what some call the ""cooler method". Boiling hot water in corn for 30 min, [husk on, peel back husk and grill for a minute or 2. I like to brush some garlic butter on mine while on the grill.
