How to Make Barbecue Corn With Bacon
- Carefully peel back the husks of 4 ears of corn, removing all the silk.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Brush each ear of corn generously with melted butter.
- Season the corn liberally with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Wrap each ear of corn with 3-4 slices of bacon, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
- Gently replace the corn husks over the bacon-wrapped corn.
- Secure the husks at the top with kitchen twine.
- Place the corn cobs directly on the preheated BBQ grill.
- Cook with the lid closed for 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the corn is tender. Internal temperature should reach 200°F (93°C).
- Remove from the BBQ, let rest for a few minutes, and serve immediately!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
