Gorgeous sweet corn is truly a summer treasure and while it's hard to top butter, S&P, sometimes it's fun to change things up. This
Sweet Corn with Southern Bar-B-Que Butter was an advertisement in Food Network Magazine and the pic looked so good I immediately pulled the page out. While they cook it under the broiler my corn was extremely fragrant and fresh so I decided to just quickly char it on screaming hot cast iron. Either heat the pan up on the stove or on the grill and turn the corn when it begins to "pop", then slather it with the BBQ Butter:@)

Sweet Corn with Southern Bar-B-Que Butter-
from FreshFromFlorida.com
1/4 C your favorite BBQ sauce
1/4 C butter
4 ears fresh corn, shucked
S&P to taste-
I didn't use this
- Preheat oven broiler on high.
- Combine BBQ sauce and butter in saucepan, melt butter over low heat and stir until smooth. (I melted mine in the microwave.)
- Place corn in baking dish and pour sauce over corn.
- Broil for 5-10 minutes about 4" from broiler. Watch it the whole time and turn it a couple times.
- Give it one last turn once out of the oven and serve warm.
i don't really like bbq sauce so that wouldn't be for me. :)
