    Grilled Corn on the Cob is a wonderful, easy addition to any Summer BBQ. Brush with garlic butter and top with parmesan or feta cheese for even more robust flavor.

    Grilled Corn on the Cob

    Greetings from the White mountains of New Hampshire! We are having a wonderful little family camping vacay with my brother and his family who are visiting from North Carolina. They are in heaven with these cool temperatures compared to the beastly hot and humid Summer they have.

    People ask me very often how I survive the winters in New England. My answer is always “the Summer and Fall” weather. We truly have the most spectacular weather, in my opinion, from May through October.

    Camping requires easy meal choices of course. This week we made this wonderful grilled corn on the cob to go with our turkey burgers, grilled portobello mushrooms and asparagus. Clean eating continues even when we go camping too.

    Corn on the cob is such a simple addition to any summer cooking, especially when you have the grill already going.

    Just toss them on the grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning often until the kernels are a little nice and brown.

    Brush with a little melted butter mixed with minced garlic.  Squeeze on a little lime juice and its ready to serve. You can even get extra fancy and sprinkle a little parmesan or feta cheese if you’d like.
