Ingredients
- 4 ears Corn on the cob
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 sheets Aluminum foil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375–400°F).
Step 2
Husk the corn and remove any silk strands. Rinse the ears of corn under cold water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the unsalted butter, garlic powder, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.
Step 4
Lay out 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each large enough to completely wrap one ear of corn.
Step 5
Brush each ear of corn lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Step 6
Spread a generous amount of the seasoned butter mixture evenly over each ear of corn.
Step 7
Place one buttered ear of corn in the center of each sheet of foil. Wrap the corn tightly by folding up the long edges first and then rolling the ends to create a secure, sealed packet.
Step 8
Place the foil-wrapped corn directly on the preheated grill grates. Close the grill lid and cook for 25 minutes, turning the packets every 5–7 minutes to ensure even cooking.
Step 9
Carefully remove the packets from the grill using tongs. Let them rest for 2–3 minutes before opening, as the steam inside will be very hot.
Step 10
Unwrap the foil, serve immediately, and enjoy!
