Instructions

  • Remove husks and strings from corn, and slather in enough olive oil to cook on a hot BBQ without sticking. Preheat your BBQ to its highest setting.
  • Put the cobs on the grill, cooking untouched for a cook 5 min or so--you'll want a nice char on the corn for the full effect.
  • Rotate corn to get char marks, cooking for no longer than 10-15 min.
  • Remove from heat and slather corn in mayo-sour cream sauce, garnishing with cilantro and Cajun spice.
  • Cut into 3 pieces and enjoy!
