Ingredients

• ½ cup butter, melted
• 1 pinch salt (Optional)
• ½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 6 ears corn, husked
• 1 (12 ounce) package smoked bacon

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place each ear of corn on a sheet of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely; brush with butter. Season with salt.

Step 2

Spread brown sugar evenly on a large plate. Roll buttered corn in brown sugar.

Step 3

Wrap 2 bacon slices around the length of each ear of corn. Wrap foil around corn, enclosing it completely.

Step 4

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Cook foil-wrapped corn over indirect heat, turning occasionally, until corn is tender and bacon is crisp, 35 to 45 minutes.
