Description

For this bacon-wrapped "caramel" corn on the cob recipe, fresh corn is coated with butter and sugar, wrapped in bacon, and grilled until decadent.

Ingredients

6 ears corn, husked
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 (12 ounce) package smoked bacon

Directions

1 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium, indirect heat and lightly oil the grate.
2 Place each ear on a sheet of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely. Brush corn with butter; season with salt.
3 Spread brown sugar evenly on a large plate; roll corn in sugar.
4 Wrap 2 bacon strips around each ear to cover; wrap foil around ears to completely enclose.
5 Cook on the preheated grill over indirect heat, flipping occasionally, until corn is tender and bacon is crisp, 35 to 45 minutes.
