To grill corn in the husk, the typical cooking time is about 15 to 22 minutes, depending on the heat and method used.
- Place the corn in its husk directly on the grill over medium to medium-high heat (around 400°F). Turn the ears occasionally to ensure even cooking and prevent burning. The husks will char and blacken, but the corn inside should steam and become tender and juicy
- Soaking the corn in cold water for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling is recommended to keep the husks from burning too quickly and to help steam the corn inside
- The corn is done when the husks are charred and the kernels inside are bright, tender, and cooked through. This usually takes about 15 to 22 minutes total grilling time, turning every few minutes
In summary, soak the corn in water for 20-30 minutes, then grill in the husk over medium heat for about 15 to 22 minutes, turning occasionally until the husks are charred and the corn is tender inside
