In this easy recipe, a spicy-tart rub pairs well with the tender kernels of grilled fresh corn on the cob. You’ll never miss butter. Grilling with the husks on helps keep the corn from tasting too smoky, and soaking it first helps prevent the husks from catching fire on the grill. Be sure to use 100-percent cotton string, as synthetic string will melt during cooking.

This is a fun and easy recipe, but I suggest going easy on the Chipotle Chili Pepper. It completely overwhelmed the lime & garlic. I only cooked 2 ears, so I made a half recipe of the basting sauce. My son loves spicy food, but even he had to get a 2nd glass of water while eating the corn and we both had to keep wiping our mouths from the burn. Try using half the amount of chipotle recommended; you can alway sprinkle on a little more if needed .
