Ingredients
- 4 ears of fresh corn, husked
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 jalapeño pepper, finely chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Start by preheating your Blackstone grill to medium heat. This will ensure that the corn cooks evenly and develops a nice char.
- While the grill is heating, prepare the corn. Husk the ears and remove all the silk. Rinse them under cool water and pat them dry with a towel.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, honey, and chopped jalapeño. This will be your sweet and spicy glaze.
- Brush the corn with the honey-jalapeño mixture, making sure to coat all sides. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the corn for added flavor.
- Place the corn directly on the grill. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally. Look for nice grill marks and a slightly charred appearance.
- Once the corn is cooked to your liking, remove it from the grill. Drizzle any remaining glaze over the corn and sprinkle with fresh cilantro for a vibrant touch.
- Serve warm and enjoy the sweet and spicy flavors!
- Cook notes and beginner tips
- Make sure to keep an eye on the corn while it’s grilling. Turning it frequently will help it cook evenly. If you want a milder version, you can reduce the amount of jalapeño or remove the seeds before chopping.
