corny topic & recipe

08.16.14

You’re gonna think me weird…unless you will feel the same way as I did.  Corny topic & recipe!

So about a month and a half ago, I went to the grocery store and I was flabbergasted to see not once but twice, people standing by the fresh corn at the produce section and removing the husks (right there) before putting it in their shopping carts.  As you can see here…

I’d never seen that and it really bothered me. (It actually still does). I guess because I feel that more and more people just don’t want to be inconvenienced regardless of how they’re inconveniencing others.  Maybe I’m just wrong.  Anyway I posted it to my Facebook and of course I heard from A LOT of peeps, how most were shocked as well but then there were two that said they always do that because they don’t want to bring worms home.  REALLY?

Obviously they don’t know that they’re missing out on being able to grill their corn so much butter in the husks rather than without them.  But shucking at the store—hogwash!

corny topic & recipe

So the corny topic here is not only about silly people that clean their corn at the store for all to see, but for me to share a corn on the cob grilling recipe.  So allow me to not vent anymore on that public display of corn shucking crud and move on to this simple recipe that will have you enjoying some of the best and tastiest grilled corn on the cob!  Perfect for your next grill time!


Recipe for my “CORN GRILLIN’ SPREAD”

  • 1/2 stick butter (room temp)
  • 1 t. lime juice
  • 1/2 t. cajun seasoning
  • 1/4 t. black pepper
  • 1/3 c. grated cheese (your favorite)
  • 4 ears of fresh corn (silks removed but leave husks on)

corny topic & recipe-ingred

While you have the ingredients out and your’re waiting for the butter to soften, place the cobs in water (to keep husks from catching fire on the grill).  I placed them in my sink for about 30 minutes while I prepped.

soak
Once your butter is soft, blend it with all the other ingredients EXCEPT the cheese.

corny topic & recipe-spread
This will be a tad messy but with your hands scoop some of the butter mix and spread (generously) on the corn and sprinkle the cheese on it (like shown).

corny topic & recipe-grill
Wrap back up in husks tightly, (I removed a few husks to use as ties), so they wouldn’t come undone while grillin’.

corny topic & recipe-grilling
Throw on a hot grill and cook turning twice for about 20 minutes.

Delicious grilled corn on the cob! NOT SHUCKED AT THE STORE.

    It is yummy! Fresh corn on the cob is the best–of course I love corn fixed any which way! Happy shucking~ Belle

    Oh wow. That sounds scrumptious! Will have to archive for (our) summer. There is something wonderful about shucking corn – just before or after cooking. If just me, I often pop a cob in a microwave for a few minutes -steamed in the husk. 🙂

My little 3 year old grandson was upset with me ye My little 3 year old grandson was upset with me yesterday. 
.
All because he decided to take his blankie home 2 days before and when we layed down to take a nap yesterday he was upset.  Upset he didn’t have his blankie and upset at Mimzy for not getting it for him. I hate to see children unhappy and that little face of his with tears rolling down made me sadder than he was.  I gave him 3 other blankets that didn’t replace his #1 blankie.  When he woke up he was still mad at me! 
.
It was the 1st and hopefully last time he’s ever mad at me, cause I sure didn’t like that and I didn’t even cause the problem to begin with. All I know is that we got that blankie back over here to avoid this happening again. The clock may be ticking and he’s growing full speed ahead but I don’t want to see that little man mad at his Mimzy if I can help it!

Definitely more important than sleeping in! Or is it? 🤣😂

Boo and I were shopping in DesMoines and we stopped in at a local tortilleria as I had ordered some masa. However they informed me they only sell in 10 pounds or more... so out the window went my “I’ll just get 5 pounds of masa for tamales” plan. Ten pounds of masa later, I immediately called my sister for backup help! Lol
.
So today is the day for tamales!  First time I’ll make ‘em since my mommas been gone.  So I’m hoping she’s watching and guiding me along. 
.
On a good note... the masa texture looks amazing so I’m hoping it’s a good sign!!! Wish me luck!

Well, it’s a different word for a Butler’s pantry. We’ve been updating ours and I find that I’m not a Butler’s pantry kinda girl. I replaced the original door with this beauty of a door I snatched for $12! I repaired the broken panes and  took a piece of plywood to make a new center panel. I then added these details on it. 
.
Our home was built for the David Dancer family in 1883. I added the wash, fold, etc. as the space also houses our laundry room. One of these days I can show you the REST of the space but until now, you get a peek at the lovely old door leading into our scullery!
