Picture this: You’re sitting by a crackling campfire, surrounded by the serene beauty of nature, and the aroma of sizzling corn on the cob fills the air. There’s something truly magical about cooking over an open flame, and campfire corn on the cob is the epitome of outdoor dining bliss. In this recipe blog, we’ll show you how to prepare this classic dish, guaranteed to elevate your camping experience.
Ingredients:
– Fresh corn on the cob
– Butter
– Salt
– Optional: herbs, spices, or grated cheese for added flavor
Instructions:
1. Preparation: Start by shucking the corn removing the husks and silk. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk strands.
2. Butter Bath: Place each ear of corn on a piece of aluminum foil. Generously spread butter over each cob, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Sprinkle with salt and any additional seasonings of your choice.
3. Wrap & Seal: Wrap each ear of corn tightly in the aluminum foil, ensuring there are no gaps for the butter to escape. Seal the foil packets securely.
4. Grilling: Spread out your fire to create coals, and place the foil-wrapped corn directly onto them. Use tongs to position them evenly. Rotate the corn occasionally to ensure even cooking.
5. Cooking Time: Depending on the heat of your campfire, the corn will take approximately 10-15 minutes to cook. You’ll know it’s ready when the kernels are tender and slightly charred.
6. Unwrapping: Carefully remove the foil packets from the fire using tongs. Allow them to cool for a minute or two before unwrapping.
7. Serve & Enjoy: Unwrap each corn cob and serve hot with additional butter or toppings if desired. The smoky flavor from the campfire will infuse the corn, creating a delectable outdoor dining experience.
