A backyard barbecue calls for BBQ ribs, sausages, hamburgers, hot dogs, steak…and of course grilled corn on the cob.

Grilled Corn on the Cob with Chili-Lime Butter & Cotija Cheese

Summer may be coming to an end, but that doesn't mean that you should pack up the grill, put it in the garage and call it a season. Even if the temperature begins to dip a bit, don't you still deserve a nice rack of BBQ ribs, juicy sausage and butter-coated corn on the cob every once in awhile? Whether you're prepping for a backyard party or just want to grill up for yourself, you're going to need a delicious grilled corn on the cob recipe to complete your meal.

Ingredients:

  • 6 ears of corn, unshucked
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 tbsp. chili powder
  • 1 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 3 limes, juiced
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic.
  • salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup cotija or feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped

Directions:

  1. Start by heating your grill to a medium/high heat then add the corn in their husks. Grill each side until the husks get a little bit black, which should take about 3 minutes per side.
  2. In a bowl, mix the room temperature butter, chili powder, minced garlic, cayenne pepper, lime juice, salt and black pepper.
  3. When your corn is done, pull back the husks and rub the chili-lime-garlic butter all over the corn. Garnish the corn with the cotija/feta cheese and chopped cilantro.
