Chili Lime Butter Recipe

  • 1 Teaspoon of Chili Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper
  • 1 Cup of Butter

Instructions
 

  • Pull some of the silk and husk off but not all of it.
  • This will add flavor, help the corn steam, and protect it from burning.
  • Fill a small tub or clean sink filled with cold water.
  • Add the salt and sugar.
  • Soak the corn cobs for at least 30 minutes and up to a couple of hours before grilling.
  • Rub the Cotija cheese all over the cobs
  • Add the chili lime sauce
  • Grill the corn 15-20 minutes until the kernel is easy poked with a fork

Notes

 We like the Chili Lime Butter but if you prefer yours plain, the grill will impart lots of flavor into the corn. 
If you are looking for lots of smokey flavors, add a smoke box to your grill.
If you have a smoker, by all means, cook it on the smoker.
