Grilling corn directly over a flame without the husk is the best way to get those charred, caramelized kernels that pop with sweetness. The high heat brings out the natural sugars in the corn while adding a smoky char that butter and salt only enhance. It is summer simplicity at its best.

Instructions

Prep the corn

Husk the corn and remove all silk. Pat dry. No oil or butter is needed before grilling — the natural moisture in the corn creates steam.

Grill over direct heat

Place corn directly over medium-high heat (400°F). Grill for 10-12 minutes total, turning every 2-3 minutes, until kernels are charred in spots and tender.

Astuce de chef : Do not be afraid of the char — those blackened spots are where the best flavor lives.

Test for doneness

The corn is done when the kernels are bright yellow, slightly blistered, and tender when pierced with a fork. A few charred kernels are desirable.

Serve

Immediately rub each ear with softened butter. Season with flaky salt and pepper. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.

Suggestions de service

Serve immediately with softened butter, flaky salt, and lime wedges. For a Mexican street corn twist, add mayo, cotija cheese, and chili powder.
