Oven Baked Corn on the Cob

My preferred method of cooking corn on the cob is, by far, on the grill. However, there are times when it is not possible or very inconvenient to do so. So, I want to share with you my back-up method of cooking corn. It is perfect for cooking a large quantity of corn (think parties!) and it could not be easier! I really prefer this over the boiling method.

This oven baked corn yields amazing results and requires just a few simple steps. Essentially all you have to do is preheat the oven, wrap up each piece of corn in foil, and let it bake. That’s IT! I told you it was easy! I am simplistic when it comes to corn in that I do not add butter, but if you would like you can add the butter before you wrap it up and bake.
