Smoked Corn with Lime Butter
Ingredients
  • 4 ears corn on the cob, silks removed
  • mesquite wood chips
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime, zested
  • 1/2 lime, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Acquire the necessary components.
2
Submerge corn cobs back into their natural covering within a large container filled with water, allowing them to rehydrate for 2 hours. Meanwhile, immerse wood chips in another container of water for approximately 30 minutes.
3
Preheat a smoker to the optimal temperature of 250 degrees Fahrenheit (120 degrees Celsius). Arrange corn cobs in an upright position on wire racks. Place the racks inside the smoker. Add wood chips according to the manufacturer's guidelines. Continue smoking until corn reaches your preferred level of tenderness, spanning 60 to 75 minutes.
4
Mix together butter, cilantro, lime zest, lime juice, and paprika in a small bowl. Remove the corn husks to reveal the tender kernels, then brush them with the butter mixture. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the corn to enhance its flavor.
