Ingredients
- 4 ears corn on the cob, silks removed
- mesquite wood chips
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 lime, zested
- ½ lime, juiced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Directions
Step 1
Place corn back in their husks in a large pot of water and soak for 2 hours. Soak wood chips in another container of water for about 30 minutes.
Step 2
Preheat a smoker to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Place corn, unstacked, onto wire racks. Place the racks into the smoker. Add wood chips according to the manufacturer's directions. Smoke until corn reaches your desired level of tenderness, 60 to 75 minutes.
