Soak corn before grilling for the best corn on the cob you’ve ever eaten. I love to use fresh ground sea salt.
Ingredients
- 1 gallon cold water
- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ cup salt
- 8 ears corn on the cob, husks and silk removed
- ½ cup softened butter, or to taste
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Pour cold water into a large pot. Stir in sugar and 1/2 cup salt until dissolved. Place corn into the pot and allow to soak for at least 30 minutes but no longer than 8 hours.
Step 2
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Step 3
Cook corn on the preheated grill, turning every 2 to 3 minutes, until slightly charred on all sides. Brush corn with butter; season with salt and pepper.
Tips
Do not soak corn longer than 8 hours. It becomes soft and very salty.
