Using the reverse searing method, you’ll achieve a perfect char while locking in the sweetness of the corn. Follow this guide to master the art of grilling corn that looks and tastes amazing.

Ingredients

  • 6 ears of corn, husked
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Corn:

    • Husk the corn and remove all the silk. Rinse the ears of corn under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
  2. Season the Corn:

    • Brush each ear of corn with melted butter, ensuring an even coat. Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. For added flavor, you can also sprinkle smoked paprika and garlic powder.
  3. Fire Up the Grill:

    • Preheat your Arteflame grill to high heat (over 1,000°F) to get it ready for grilling.
  4. Grill the Corn:

    • Place the ears of corn on the center grill grate and sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side to develop a nice char.
    • Move the corn to the flat top griddle surrounding the grill grate. Lower the heat to medium and continue grilling for another 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and evenly charred.
  5. Finish and Serve:

    • Remove the corn from the grill and brush with more melted butter. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve hot.

Tips

  • Butter vs. Olive Oil: Butter adds a rich flavor that complements the sweetness of the corn beautifully.
  • High Heat for Searing: Achieve a perfect char by utilizing the high heat of the Arteflame Grill.
  • Even Cooking: Move the corn around the flat top griddle to find the optimal heat zone for even cooking.
