Ingredients

  • 4 ears corn with husks
  • 1/4 cup margarine or butter
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon leaves
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  • 1
    GRILL DIRECTIONS: To grill corn in husks, tie the tops of husks with a piece of husk or string. Soak ears in cold water 1 to 2 hours.
  • 2
    When ready to grill, place corn on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals; cover grill. Cook 15 to 20 minutes or until corn is tender, turning frequently.
  • 3
    Meanwhile, melt margarine in small saucepan. Stir in mustard, tarragon and pepper. Set aside.
  • 4
    Remove corn from grill; peel back husks. With tongs, hold base of corn; grasp top of silk and pull quickly to remove. Brush ears of corn with melted margarine mixture.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Dried thyme, basil or chives can be used instead of the tarragon.
  • tip 2
    If you don’t want to grill the corn in the husks, remove the husks and silk from the corn and place each ear on a piece of heavy-duty foil. Brush the ears with the margarine mixture; wrap each ear in foil using double-fold seal. Grill the packets about 15 minutes or until corn is tender, turning frequently.
