Corn Off The Grill 3 Ways    Time honored grilling technique for corn is to pull back husks, remove silks and tie husks back up over ears.  Soak in cold water for 20 minutes, then grill over hot coals 10 to 15 minutes, turning frequently.    Remove from grill, pull back husks and brush with butter.  If you have a large crowd to feed, melt the butter and mix in seasoning.  Pour into a metal coffee can, half filled with water.  Set this on the edge of the grill and dip ears as you pull back husks.  The butter stays on top of water,  and stays on corn as you dip in.  Water just runs back into can.
