I don't get an invite to any family or friend bar-b-cue without the request that I be "in charge" of the corn!! Once you've tried this corn I know you'll agree. Grilling brings out the sweetness of the corn along with the smoky kick of the chili powder and bacon. Delicious!!

Ingredients

  • 12 ears corn on the cob, with husks
  • 12 slices thin, lean bacon
  • 3 Tbs. fresh ground black pepper
  • 3 Tbs. chili powder
  • 12 pieces of foil approximately 12in.x12in.

Directions

Pull off dry outer husks of corn and discard. Hold ear of corn by the cob and pull husks down to reveal corn. Remove corn silk while running corn under cold water. Dry corn and rub with chili powder and black pepper. Wrap bacon slice around corn. Pull husks back over corn and wrap whole ensemble with foil. Grill over hot coals approx. 15 minutes turning frequently. Let corn relax in foil for 20 minutes. Remove foil, husks and serve!

  • I put my hand in a sandwich baggie, pour a bit of Olive Oil in my hand to add oil or Crisco to whatever I am cooking. Then it is easier to wash my hands.
    I rub Olive Oil on potatoes to make the salt stick when I bake them in the oven. ... or to grease a cake pan. No mess on my hands at all.
    This will work with the corn on the cob too. Thanks for the recipe. I will be making corn on the grill. Yum.
