Before You Begin

See the Step by Step below for how to judge when the corn is ready to come off the grill.

Instructions

Grill the corn over a medium-hot fire, turning the ears every 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until the dark outlines of the kernels show through the husk and the husk is charred and beginning to peel away from the tip to expose some kernels, 8 to 10 minutes.

Transfer the corn to a platter. Carefully remove and discard the charred husks and silk. Season the corn with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately with butter, if desired.
