Corn on the Grill

Ingredients

• cooking spray
• 0.5 cup butter
• 5 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 lime, juiced
• 2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce (such as Tapatio®)
• 6 ears fresh corn

Steps

1. Gather all ingredients. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
2. Heat butter and garlic in a small saucepan over low heat to infuse butter with garlic flavor, about 5 minutes. Do not let butter simmer.
3. Stir sugar, salt, black pepper, and cumin together in a small dish until well combined. Stir into butter mixture along with lime juice and hot sauce until evenly blended.
4. Brush ears of corn generously with garlic butter; reserve remaining garlic butter.
5. Cook corn on the preheated grill, rotating occasionally until corn is hot and tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Brush corn with remaining garlic butter as corn cooks.
