I intended to follow this recipe exactly as stated to discover we were out of propane. Left corn whole, soaked 30 minutes and placed in oven at 450 degrees for 25 minutres, removed husk and seasoned per this recipe it rocked!

Have made this corn a few times a few different ways! Still haven't found the cheese but it is great without it! Hoping to find the right cheese today!
