When our son was young, corn was the only vegetable he'd eat. My husband and I soon got bored with the simple salt and butter topping, so I stirred in some lemon juice and chives.—Sue Kirsch, Eden Pairie, Minnesota

I wrapped the corn in foil instead of re-wrapping it in the husks, and it turned out fine. Very tender, moist and flavorful! Yum!

Excellent!! Soaked the corn in the husks for one hour. Then, cleaned the corn of the husk and silk. Placed on aluminum foil on the gas grill. Continuously brushing with the butter mixture, and rotating the corn until finished. Absolutely superb!!

I use lime rather than lemon juice and add some chili powder. Extremely delicious!

Made this just as directed and I was wonderful!!! Used the extra butter mixture at the table to put on corn.

Instead of using lemon juice,salt and pepper, I just mixed in chives and lemon pepper. It was wonderful.
