Ingredients

  • 4 ears corn
  • 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) cold unsalted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baby Bam, recipe follows
  • Make sure the oven rack is in the center position and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Remove the husks and silk from each ear of corn. Rinse the corn under cold running water and pat dry. Cut the butter into 4 equal pieces and place 1 a third of the way up from the bottom on each piece of foil. Set 1 ear of corn on top of each butter pat and sprinkle with some of the Baby Bam. Roll up the foil over the corn, starting at the bottom. Keep rolling until only 4 inches of foil are left at the top, then fold the left and right sides in toward the center. Finish rolling the foil over the corn.
  • Place the corn on a baking sheet. Bake until tender, about 1 hour.
  • Using oven mitts or pot holders, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before taking the corn out of the hot foil.

    I loved the seasoning but cut down on the amount in the recipe or it's just too overwhelming. Cooking the corn for an hour produced a mushy texture. 20 minutes is all you need, especially when it's cooked at the height of the season when the cobs are sweet and tender, naturally.

    We tried this out and really like it. The only caveats we found were to a be careful of the amount of "baby bam" you use - a little goes a long way, and b the corn is a little softer than we're used to from boiling it.

    Very easy to make and good enough to make again.

    I made this twice and both times my kids and our friends kids were not thrilled with it and didn't eat the corn. They prefer grilled corn without spices. But, the adults loved it. It's a different taste than bbq corn but it was great.
