Parmesan Cheese Corn on the Cob - Side Dishes from the Grill


Believe it or not... This was a lunch.  Nothing else, just wonderful fresh sweet corn hot off the grill.

You probably have seen the commercial for the dog snacks where the cartoon dog goes storming around the house mumbling "BACON, BACON, BACON, Gotta have some BACON".  Well, picture me doing the same thing about sweet corn... This time of year I gotta have some sweet corn!

Just last week I did a post on Grilled Corn on the Cob - Simple Recipe for Fresh Corn.  As you can see from this photo, I usually grill my corn in the husk.  Just looks more authentic.  But yesterday i bought a dozen ears that had already been stripped of the hairs and husks.  No problem, just used aluminum foil to wrap the ears.  I have tried grilling corn without husks or foil and have not been happy with the results.  Takes all of the liquid out.  Me, I like Sweet Juicy corn... use something (husks or foil) between the HOT grate and the corn.

As you can see in the photos from this cook session, I got plenty of grill marks and yet had very tender juicy kernels.

SWEET CORN, SWEET CORN, SWEET CORN... Gotta Have some SWEET CORN!!!
