Prep tips: To grill corn, pull back outer husks and remove inner silk; rewrap cobs in husks, set over a medium-hot grill and cook, turning occasionally, for 5–10 minutes. Remove kernels by standing cobs upright on a rimmed baking sheet lined with a towel (to prevent slipping and to protect the knife); use a sharp knife to cut down along the length of the cob.
