The ice cube is an interesting variation.

I think the ice cube does what my water sprinkling does. I have also put an ice chip in the middle of a burger to keep the center rare.
i like some smoke and char on my corn...do you get any browning on yours ?

What type of Evergood did you try?

I love the corn ideas. I grill mine with little husk / silk for a few untuned minutes, then let it sit on a plate before I remove the charred husk and silk as I can. Then I eat it. No butter or other seasoning. I’m sure it could taste better but I like it this way. I had 3 corn on the cob last Thursday night for supper.

polish sausage. It looked spicy on the inside which I love, but I expected it to look less red spice on the inside and maybe more bland brown; thus that sweet hot mustard. I would continue to buy evergood when on sale because I’m sure that I’d enjoy any sale sausage of any flavor.

my spouse prefers aidell chicken apple which is nicely priced at Costco.

in the future, I’ll probably stick to buying one 4/5-pack at a time and I’ll make it pork as opposed to eschewing pork as I’ve done before. I’ll stop buying salami for now and just stick with maybe one sausage pack a week max for myself. Obviously there are a lot of fun choices at any market and it’s all great on the grill!

tonight will probably be cheese pizza.

Grilling corn in it’s husk seems rather counterintuitive. For me, grilling corn is all about the flavor and perhaps smokiness of the grill. Pulling silk off a hot ear of corn doesn’t sound fun, either. Butter and salt, too, otherwise it’s naked! And served hot or warm. No cold corn on the cob, por favor.

It sounds odd, but it works pretty well. I've tried without husks and with foil too. But I get the best flavor from grilling in the husk. Some people will tell you to soak the corn, husk on, in water for quite a while, which results in steaming, kind of like how a tamale is cooked. My preference is peel back the husk, remove the silk, pull the husks back up, then quickly run on water. It keeps the husks from burning away, but chars them. Gives the corn a light smokey, charred flavor, as its not completely sealed in. Then butter and salt, and maybe some garlic powder or whatever I feel like.

But I agree 100% that pulling the silk off the corn is annoying.

I agree that it has to be hot or warm.

Yes, the ice cube does the same as water; it's just easier and less messy than trying to get water into the foil packet.

No char, but Mrs. cblaisd likes it this way (I'm not a fan of corn on the cob at all, so it matters not to me).

Turkey bacon has the texture and taste of cardboard. Beef bacon has never worked out in recipes. In my experience, lamb bacon is closest in appearance, taste and texture to pork bacon.

But not as good as cardboard :D

Nasty stuff, imo.

Not to be the nutrition police but I am still not seeing any veggies (other than corn which isn't the healthiest veg) or even chicken in your new cooking adventures.

That makes a lot more sense than pulling the silk off after grilling. I’ll see if my wife can find some corn with husks on here, and try your method. Most COTC here is dehusked for sale in the supermarket. Maybe in the pasar...

In googling beef bacon, I see some attractive pictures of high end beef bacon. Never eaten any good beef bacon, myself. I like lamb, but just don’t see it much.

The best pork bacon I ever had was at the Park Hyatt Saigon. Thin and crispy!

amusingly my luncheon today was chicken as part of the Japanese curry.

i used turkey bacon with Club crackers; not as great as bacon but still good!

is it good or not good that the corn is sold without husks?? Wow

Still wondering where those veggies are....
Lots of places (including Costco) sell the corn already shucked and shrink wrapped. I prefer it in the husk and also not peeled back so I can just test the top kernels. The sugars in corn turn to starch very quickly after picked so I figure if it had time to get husked and wrapped it is not quite as fresh. I try to buy corn at the farmers market when possible. I don't know if all of this makes a huge difference but that's what I do. Of course it is much more convenient to buy already husked.
