Or one of our summer favorites:

@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

Corn On The Cob With Cheese And Lime

barbecue, vegetables

4 ears corn in the husk
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper; or to taste
1/4 cup cotija or feta cheese; shredd

Prepare grill.

Soak corn husks in cold water 10 mins. Drain corn and grill on a rack
set 5 - 6 inches over glowing coals until husks are charred, about 10
mins. Shuck corn and grill until kernels are browned in spots, about
10 mins.

While corn is grilling, in a small bowl whisk together mayonnaise and
cayenne pepper. Using the small tear-dropped shape holes on a
four-sided grater, grate cheese.

Brush mayonnaise mixture onto hot corn and sprinkle with cheese. Serve
with lime wedges.
