CORN

On the eastern end of Long Island we have some exellent local corn & I am an advocate of using corn holders as I like eating the corn when it is hot. We melt butter and add some Old Bay to it and then roll the corn in that. Not too much better than fresh corn with a lobster boil with some local Little Neck clams. While it is in season local corn is served with every dinner. If you have any leftover, strip it off the cob, saute up a vidalia onion in butter and toss in the corn. Sprinkle liberally with some black & red pepper & finish with a splash of half & half. Delish.

Our favorite is cooking it directly on the grill without husk and without foil, just after the main bbq entre' is ready. It's already rolled in soft butter then apply kosher salt, pepper and garlic powder. Ya gotta watch it so it doesn't get TOO dark but it's great. It's ready in under 10 minutes. Add more butter and salt if desired. Can't wait for bbq season, which, in Colorado, can strike at any time (even in-between spring snows)!! The only drawback is corn isn't in season for a while.

The thing is, the proper way to eat fried chicken on the bone is with your hands. Now picture a meal of good ole' fried chicken and corn on the cob prepared your favorite way. Seems silly to use little handles while you are not using anything of the sort with the chicken. Weren't napkins invented for a reason?
