joonze for dinner...God i love Jersey corn...its not bright yellow, its not white...its like the color of butter and so sweet its like candy...but not seet like candy corn(yuck)...just a little butter, salt and pepper and its a meal in itself....

because of the mild winter, corn has become available earlier then the last few years...and living in South Jersey, we have still a good amount of farms that even the super markets carry daily picked fresh corn....

mmmm, so fricking good i cant stop thinking of it...

corn, butter, garlic powder, tin foil.

rip enough tin foil to cover entire corn.

place corn on with no stalk.

add garlic powder.

add butter on the corn.

wrap up everything so its tight. throw on grill for like 15 minutes and let it cook inside the foil.

BAM

Throw it on the grill, husks and all. When the husks are brown and dry, peel and enjoy.

within 15 minutes, the sugar starts to starch-up (polymerize) -- eating fresh corn off the stalk straight to the grill is otherworldly...

joonze grilled corn is awesome... but i just placed it in boiling water tonight while i grilled some chicken breasts that were marinaded in zesty Italian dressing...
try this... soak in ice water for 30 minutes, pull back husks and rub with butter and chilly power and salt... pull back up husks and grill just above coals (i gave up gas grills 2 summers ago and went back to charcoal)....let husks get almost burnt.....it caramelized the sugars in the corn and the mix of the chili power and the sugars is a prefect blend....start off light with the chili power until you do this a few times...don't want it to overpower...just enhance...

im close enough to farm stands, though they are getting fewer over the past few years that we can walk out and pick, and pay...not quite the 15 minute thing, but pretty danm near it...I know what you mean...
would grow it, but my yard is to small to make it worthwhile....but if we talk tomatoes...i have have some bumper crops in the past... jersey is known for its tomatoes...and nothing like slices of tomatoes with mozzarella drizzled with evoo and fresh basil....

Phlat_Brim_Kid I gotta call bs on your shipped in florida corn!

We all know the best sweet corn in america is grown in western NY and around here we got a saying
"Knee High By 4th of July" so i know u got some 3 day old corn.
The second the corn is picked, it starts to die! i will only eat corn picked fresh that morning, straight from the farm!

benevolution Save the inner leaves, the ones that actually touch the corn. they roll excellent blunts. let them dry out just a little bit, apply a little honey and roll a blunt that will burn for an hour.

edit: technically you would call it a spliff not a blunt.

Magilla94 Permalink
Magilla94 In 2011, Iowa corn farmers grew almost 13.7 million acres of field corn, but ccording to the 2007 U.S. Census of Agriculture, Iowa only harvested 3,548 acres of sweet corn.

Whereas, New Jersey ranks nationally in sweet corn production. It was 10th in the nation in 2009, with 78.1 million pounds produced on 7,100 acres.

Not that quantity=quality, but y'all don't really specialize in sweet corn, right @JayDubya?

DJPhresh My mom's side of the family owns a 100 acre cow & dairy farm in Western PA. I broke the old family record of, most ears of corn eaten at one sitting. I would eat the corn then walk over to the cows where they would chow down the rest. I ate 18 ears of corn as a kid. My mom said the corn was smaller that year but she was only joking.
