"green's Steamed/Grilled Corn-On-The-Cob"

Corn/cob

Milk

Sugar

Butter



Get some sweet corn.  Husk and remove silks.  Soak in a milk/sugar combo
as long as you want. 

Make aluminum foil "boats" (one per ear) so that edges are crinkled up
and will hold a liquid.

Place one ear o'corn in each 'boat', pour on as much milk/sugar combo as
you want, dice as little/as much butter into boat, seal tightly, place
on grill.

When corn soft, ENJOY!


Note:  If you get FRESH sweet corn in full husks (mine was store bought
with only partial husks) you don't have to de-husk.  Just gently open
husks and remove as much of the silk as you can.  Then soak as above. 
You can then either put in a 'boat' or you can just tossed the soaked
ear on grill.  But don't get too close to heat this way as the husks
will/can dry out and burn.  You will have to watch more closely.

Again, let me know how you enjoy this.  And what tweaks you do.

I'd think some chipolte powder mite be good on this - ear corn.  Nice
smokey, warm taste.  Too, I've seen (where???) a recipe for c-o-c that
comes out all crunchy with parmesian cheeze and other stuff....  Now
where was that????
