Ingredients
8 ears corn 1 lb bacon water, for soaking butcher string
Servings: 8 Prep Time: 45 Minutes Cook Time: 15 – 20 Minutes Didn’t think that grilled corn can be improved upon? Well think bacon! Corn just get any better than this. What a way to eat your veggies.
Directions
Carefully expose the corn kernels by pulling back the husk, but do NOT remove the husk.
Remove the corn silk (you can use a soft brush to ensure that all the silk is removed).
Put water in a large container, add the corn, and soak the corn in the husks for 30 minutes – this will help prevent the husks from charring on the grill.
Preheat your grill to medium temperature. Remove the soaked corn from the water and pat dry.
Wrap strips of bacon around the corn kernels on each ear, then fold the husks back over the bacon and kernels. Tie the husks down with butcher string; repeat with all ears of corn.
Grill over medium coals/heat, turning occasionally, for about 15 to 20 minutes and the bacon is cooked and the corn is tender. Partially cooking the bacon will ensure it is cooked through on the grill.
Cut the butcher string away from the husks and serve.
