Today I spent the day in Adel Iowa for the Sweet Corn festival. They made over 8 tons of corn!!! It was so tasty. When my son in law was home in July he made it on the grill and I didn't care for it at all. Do you have a special technique for doing your sweet corn? I have heard of some that put sugar in it to make if more flavorful.

I do boil it on the stove in a pot of salted water, and add suger to sure it will be sweet. I also BBQ mine on the grill. I cook it a little the night before in salted, sugared water. I then let it cool a bit. I butter each ear of corn, and wrap it in foil. I then cook it on the grill the next day. It is a family favorite. I hear some people cook it in the microwave with the husk on. I have not tried this, but am thinking about it. Just to see what it taste like.
