Mouzin Brothers’ Grilled Corn on the Cob Recipe
Ingredients:
- 6 ears of fresh Mouzin Brothers sweet corn, husks and silks removed
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as parsley, cilantro, or chives), finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Optional toppings: grated Parmesan cheese, chili powder, lime wedges
Directions:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F to 400°F (190°C to 200°C).
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, chopped fresh herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until the ingredients are well combined and the butter is evenly infused with the flavors of the herbs and spices.
- Place the prepared ears of Mouzin Brothers sweet corn directly on the preheated grill grate. Grill the corn for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the kernels are tender and lightly charred in spots.
- During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the ears of corn generously with the herb-infused butter, ensuring that each ear is evenly coated.
- Once the corn is cooked through and the butter is melted and bubbling, remove the ears from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
- Garnish the grilled corn on the cob with additional fresh herbs, grated Parmesan cheese, a sprinkle of chili powder, or a squeeze of lime juice, if desired.
- Serve the Mouzin Brothers’ Grilled Corn on the Cob immediately while still warm, and enjoy the smoky sweetness of summer’s finest bounty.
