Summer cookouts are a favorite here at basil & salt and as always fresh foods are on the menu.

Whether you use the backyard barbecue or cook over a pit, fresh corn tastes a little better with a bit of char and smoke.

Lay your clean, shucked corn naked on the grill for a total cook time of about ten minutes. Turn often to ensure an even char.

Quick Tip

If you prefer your corn very tender or if you would like to lessen the grilling and char time, place unshucked corn in the microwave for up to 3 minutes. Cool, shuck and gently clean for grilling.
