- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Low-carb BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chopped parsley

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Shuck the corn, removing all husks and silk. Rinse under cold water to remove any remaining silk.

In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Brush each ear of corn with the seasoned olive oil mixture until evenly coated.
Step 5
Place the corn on the preheated grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, until the corn is tender and has a slight char.
Step 6
When the corn is nearly done, use a grill brush to coat each ear with the low-carb BBQ sauce.
Step 7
Grill for an additional 2-3 minutes, turning frequently, until the BBQ sauce has caramelized slightly.
Step 8
Remove the corn from the grill and let rest for a couple of minutes.
Step 9
Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for garnish and serve each ear with a lime wedge for squeezing over the top.
