Corn Deserves Better Than Plain Butter 🌽😉
Fresh summer corn is already pretty close to perfect, but a flavored butter takes it somewhere unforgettable. 💛 Honey Shallot Butter brings richness with just a touch of sweetness, while Chipotle Lime Butter adds smoky heat and bright citrus. Whether you're firing up the grill for family dinner or a backyard cookout, this is the kind of recipe that reminds us how a few thoughtful ingredients can completely transform a classic. 🌞🧈
Grilled Corn on the Cob
Yield: 6 servings
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons dried
6 to 8 ears of fresh corn, shucked
