Description
I like to gnaw down my cobs in rows like an ol’ timey cartoon character.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 ears of corn, shucked and cleaned
- 6 tbsp salted butter
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar*
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F and place an oven rack in the center. Line a baking sheet with non-stick aluminum foil. Place your corn cobs on the foiled lined sheet and set them aside.
- In a small bowl mix together the butter, sugar, salt, and both types of pepper with a fork until thoroughly combined.
- Use a basting brush to apply half the compound butter all over each ear of corn. Roast in the oven for 10 minutes, then turn and continue roasting for 7-10 more minutes, until browned in spots and kernels are deeply yellow and tender when you press them with a fingertip.
- After the corn has finished cooking apply the remaining butter all over the corn and serve immediately. Dassit!
Notes
- I recommend tasting the compound butter when you’re done mixing it up, before applying it. This way you can adjust to your own tastes.
