I cook corn on the grill and brush it with a spicy garlic butter. These ears of corn will have your guests coming back to the grill for more.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray

  • 5 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste

  • ½ cup butter

  • 1 tablespoon white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • ½ lime, juiced

  • 2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce (such as Tapatio®)

  • 6 ears fresh corn

Directions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.

  2. Heat garlic and butter in a small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes to infuse the butter with the flavor of garlic. Do not let the butter simmer.

  3. Stir together sugar, salt, black pepper, and cumin in a small dish. Stir into the butter mixture along with lime juice and hot sauce until evenly blended. Brush ears of corn generously with the garlic butter; reserve remaining butter.

  4. Cook corn on the preheated grill, rotating occasionally until the corn is hot and tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Brush corn with remaining garlic butter as corn cooks.
