Hey dudes!
I am Hilah, and today on Hilah Cooking we're going to make some grilled corn on the cob.
We're gonna do it Mexican style, so I am gonna show you how to grill out here, and then we're
going to top it with mayonnaise, lime juice, cheese and chili powder.
It might sound weird to you if you're never tried it, but pinky swears, the best way to
eat corn on the planet.
You got to soak you corn in water for 30 minutes to an hour.
That's to keep it from catching on fire, and then I have got a grill here that's ready
and hot.
It's about 400 degrees.
The lid is super-hot.
So we're gonna put these on the hot side.
All right, and I am gonna put the lid back on it and let them cook for about 15 minutes
and then I will flip them and cook the other side.
Okay!
Time to turn our corn, lovely, smelling like good corny goodness.
Okay, so another 15 minutes.
It's pretty simple really.
Okay, so time to take these babies off of here for a sec, and then put them over here.
Put the lid back on so I don't lose all my heat, and then you want to just sort of use
a hot mitt.
We're gonna peel back almost all of the husk.
Well, it's actually not all that hot.
Okay, now we're gonna put these almost naked corn cobs back onto the grill, and this is
gonna make sure that they not only are cooked, but also get some of that nice, charcoal flavor
there, so that will just take another five or ten minutes.
Final flip time guys!
Lovely, beautiful.
Okay, okay, finally our corn is ready!
Yay!
Look at that, so I am gonna put it in here, and then I was gonna do the whole thing outside,
but there's too many goddamn flied in Texas.
Somebody needs to talk Rick Perry about that!
Just kidding, he can't do anything.
Okay, I am gonna take this inside, and we will cheese them up in the indoors without
the flies.
Okay, back inside free of flies we are gonna husk our corn.
See the silk just comes right off.
So that's great.
I am just gonna leave that on there because it looks pretty like a little Indian festival,
and then I've got this sauce here is mayonnaise, lime juice, a little bit of salt, and some
cotija hot cheese which is similar to parmesan.
It might seem really weird to you, but it is actually awesome.
So I am just gonna use my little brush here to brush this mayonnaise onto the cob, the
corn cob, get all the sides, and some people like to actually brush this on and then put
them back on the grill so that the mayonnaise itself gets a little bit charred, but I don't
know.
By the time I am to this point I really just want to eat some corn.
You know what I am sayin'?
Okay, gorgeous!
Yay!
And then we're gonna sprinkle a little bit more cheese on top, make it extra-cheesy,
and then I have got tajin which is like a, it's a really popular Mexican seasoned salt.
It's basically just chili powder, salt, and some dehydrated lime juice.
I am gonna use that.
If you can't find that, you can totally just put some chili powder and salt on there, whatever
kind of chili powder you like.
It's time to tasty-taste.
I am gonna eat it like a typewriter.
Mmmm!
That looks odd.
I have corn all over my face.
Totally worth it, and I have corn in my teeth.
Also totally worth it because this is the bomb.com.
Sorry to use an ancient expression, but I am kind of old.
So, there you go.
Oh, my gosh.
I totally have mayonnaise all over my face.
Okay, am I clean?
I don't care.
Okay, well, thanks for watching.
There's how to make grilled corn on the cob.
If you have any questions, please leave a comment, and I will try to answer them as
soon as I can.
Thanks so much for watching, and I hope you guys have a great week, and I hope you try
