Corn on the cob can be grilled on any type of grill or even in a griddle, but grilling it on coals will add a unique flavor that perfectly complements the seasoning. Cook until the cobs are lightly charred, then serve immediately, drizzled with spicy butter mixed with crushed, fiery jalapeño, fresh cilantro, and lime zest. It makes a vibrant Mexican-inspired appetizer.

"We hulled the corn before roasting to give it a smoky flavor." If you prefer to cook it in the husks, roast for 3-4 minutes longer.
