Hey guys,

I've got a favor to ask for some of you. I'm looking for a smoked corn rub or just what you guys normally do when smoking corn. I've done a search on here, but it didn't turn up much and i'm on sort of a time cruch.

Thanks in advance!

What I do for small batches is peel back the leaves without removing them. The outside ones are stiffer and might break so remove those if they do. Then I remove all the silk. I mix up some butter with salt, pepper, garlic powder, basil, thyme or whatever spices you like. Smear it on the corn and pull the leaves back over the corn. Be kind of careful so you get the corn all covered with the leaves. I usually use a little piece of leaf to tie all the leaves together on the end also. Throw them on the pit until they start to soften a little, maybe 1-2 hours.
For large batches soak the ears in water for a couple hours and just throw them on the grill. When about ready to serve melt some butter in a tall can with some honey. Grab an ear, peel the leaves back (leave them on for a handle), remove the silk and dip it in the butter. The honey really helps the butter stick to the corn.

Cajan butter is pretty good. Just blend in some cajan seasoning into butter and add to the corn as it cooks.

I always set them up on the warming rack along with the taters. Haven't had one burn yet.

I sometimes wrap mine in foil if it is over direct heat, but if it is indirect heat I place them directly on the grill husk only.

I tend to put them on as they are with no soaking, butter or seasoning at all, but we really like the natural sweet flavor of corn around our house.
