Instructions

Step 1

Pierce a skewer halfway into the bottom of each corn cob. (If using wooden skewers, soak skewers in water for 30 minutes, first.)

Step 2

Preheat the grill to medium heat (between 350-450 degrees F).

Step 3

Place the corn directly over the heat, cover and let cook for 10 to 15 minutes, turning often, until the kernels are spotted brown.

Step 4

Meanwhile, combine the spread ingredients in a small bowl, and the topping ingredients in a separate small bowl; set aside.

Step 5

Carefully remove the corn cob from the grill and transfer to a large platter. Smear the spread all over each corn cob, then sprinkle evenly with the topping. Serve immediately.
