how do you cook yours. Do oyu buy fresh or frozen? I would like to make some sometime and want to know if it is easier to boil or put on the fire?? I dont think the kids would like burnt corn

I preffer mine fresh from Farmers Market or road side stand, then grilled it. No need to remove the silk's or anything, just though it on there. Sometimes you do need to use the upper rack to keep it from burning. A good tip I've heard but not tried yet is to soak the corn (huck's and all, unopened) in sugar water before you grill it. This will obviousley enhance the sweetness of the corn and the extra moisture from soaking helps to steam it even better and protect against drying out too much.

If you all try grilling the corn or cooking as you described, let me know what worked best and I will add it to the "cookbook".

We have done it both ways - boiling and grilling. I prefer grilling.
We have used both frozen ears of corn and fresh
the frozen turned out surprisingly good! I used the little pieces.

for both frozen and fresh on the grill..

butter and salt the ear of corn
wrap in 1 layer of heavy duty foil or 2 layers of regular foil
turn regularly so it doesnt burn.
20 minutes or so. the back of the bag of frozen corn will tell you how long.

I have not tried soaking in sugar water - sounds great!

found this..
(never heard of baking corn, but sounds good)

IN THE HUSK - GRILLED OR BAKED:
Corn cooked this way is steamed and does not taste very different from boiled corn. It is handy to serve in the husk because you can season or butter the corn before it is cooked.

To prepare, pull husk back from each ear of corn, but leave attached at base of cob. Pull off and discard silk; trim off any insect damage, and rinse ears. If you want to butter them pat ears dry and rub with soft butter. Pull husks back up around corn.

If you want the husk to stay snugly against the ear, pull off one or two of the outer husk layers, tear lengthwide into thin strips, and tie them around ear in several places. Just before cooking, immerse the ears in cool water (this keeps husks from burning).

TO GRILL:
Husk corn and discard silk; wrap each ear loosely with aluminum foil. Over gas or hot coals, place corn onto a hot grill over medium heat. Cover barbecue with lid, open any vents, and cook fifteen to 20 twenty minutes; turn occasionally.

TO BAKE:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare corn as directed for grilling, but put ears in a single layer, separating them slightly, directly onto the oven rack or onto a baking pan. Bake twenty to twenty-five minutes or until corn is tender when pierced and very hot.

we boiled it last time we went camping and it was great ! fresh corn from my sisters garden though.. just thought i would post something !!
