Corn on the Cob
By - the old weather guy in SLC
Take a few ears of corn. Make sure you buy corn with the husks. You want to make sure you do not shuck the corn.
Put the ears of corn in the microwave. I was even so lazy, mine still had the plastic bag from the grocery store.
Microwave for 5-6 minutes.
Wait a few minutes before you start to shuck the corn because it is pretty hot. Discard leaves, silk and your corn is ready to be slathered with butter, salt and pepper.
Why this works - the leaves and silk work as a natural barrier for the corn to steam itself. All you need is heat. Can it work if you bbq it this way or just throw it on an open fire? I am sure it would work. I just don't have a lot of open fires around my house and it is faster to microwave it. :)
You can thank me later :) Enjoy.

you can throw it whole on the grill but it takes quite a while but it is freakin tasty y'all!
Yummmy, I love corn! I think my favorite is boiling it in salt water from the ocean while having a bonfire. It's the best!
you can wrap it shucked in a wet paper towel and microwave it as well. i think i ate corn on the cob every SINGLE day last summer after discovering this trick.
