Summer Butter Roasted Corn Made Easy!

Butter Roasted Corn on the Cob

I am still enjoying the wonders of foil!  Here is yet another fun thing to do with foil for your BBQ the weekend.

Ingredients:

10 ears of corn
1 stick butter - melted
salt
seasoning of your choice(optional)
20 pieces of foil precut to fit 1/2 ear of corn

Cooking Tool:  Large Crock Pot

Directions:

1.Clean, husk, and prep your corn on the cob.  I suggest cutting each ear in half for serving a smaller portion.


2. Use the precut foil to individually wrap each half.  Place the corn half on the foil.  Pour some melted butter all over the corn.  Sprinkle a little salt.  Add the seasoning of your choice to make this your own creation.  I added a little Emeril's.  You can add Mrs. Dash or Red Chile.  Be creative about what you serve up and match the flavors that compliment your own meal.  I even like garlic, ginger, and soy sauce!


3. Wrap up each half tightly and twist the ends up so the flavor roasts right into the corn!  Yummy!!!

4.  Now load all the halves in your crock pot.  Set the timer and cook on high for about two hours.  You can rotate the ears of corn around once in the cooking process to evenly heat all the ears.  If you cook this longer than two hours, you won't be disappointed.  The corn will taste just fine; and, you can pretty much leave the corn in the crock to keep the ears ready to eat for your BBQ.


This corn was amazing!!!  Everyone loved the roasted flavor and the butter was absorbed right into the cob for an amazingly sweet and savory flavor.  No flavor or nutrients were lost in a big pot of boiling water, and every piece was tender.


I hope you try this idea at your summer BBQ!  Thank you for reading my blog.  Please share the ideas and recipes.  The more you share the better, and I truly appreciate it!

Family Blessings,
Abi
