I’ve grilled corn this way for years but I like to soak them for a while so they steam in the husk without it burning too much. Otherwise exactly the same method.

One tip to take this to the next level, soak the ears in water, cut end up for 30 minutes before grilling.

In reply to Queene Greene. As explained in the post, grilling the corn inside the husk will allow the silks to fall away with the husk after grilling. It's a simpler method that we like to utilize.

“Next, cut off the silk at the top of the ear along with any loose bits of husk” WHat?? This method doesn’t get rid of all the corn-silk left under the husk. Every single corn I’ve shucked/cleaned/grilled/roasted has plenty of silk beyond the tip as your photo shows. Cutting off the silk at the top of the ear will leave you with a mouthful of silk, I guarantee you.

I can see this would work but I’d peel back the husk to check for worms before cooking.

That’s the bestest corn on the cob that I have grilled in a long time.

In reply to brenda hyatt. No. It will easily come off after grilling.

do you not silk the corn before cooking?
