Instructions
Prepare the grill by oiling the cooking grates and preheating the grill to medium high heat, approximately 300 to 350º.
Husk the corn, removing all husks and silks.
Place the ears of corn on the oiled cooking grates. Cook for approximately 14 minutes, turning corn every 2 to 3 minutes and closing the lid between each.

Notes
Tip:
When selecting fresh corn on the cob, try to find ears of corn whose silks still seem moist.
While salt and butter are the classic corn seasonings, there are so many other ways to add flavor. You can slather your corn with flavored butter like garlic butter, herb butter, or Cajun butter, sprinkle on some chili lime seasoning, chili powder, or fresh herbs, or add a squirt of fresh lime juice.
For a vegan version, use your favorite non-dairy spreads instead of butter.
If you are using the husk grilling method, to plump up your grilled corn and prevent the husks from burning, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, for best results.
