Grilled Corn On The Cobb In The Husk


We love grilled corn.  However, we never grill it.  My kids beg for it when we go to an event that has it for sale.  Even the five year old is addicted.  So, after a quick Internet search on the best way to grill corn, I discovered it really isn't that hard.  So we tried it, and it was, in our opinion...DELICIOUS!
