Instructions
To make the corn
Remove the husk and silk from the corn and rinse.
Trim edges of corn if desired to make it easier to insert corn cob holders.
Place a rack in a large skillet and fill will about 1 inch or so of water. Bring to a boil.
Add the corn and cover. Cook for about 10 minutes. This process is steaming the corn rather than boiling it and it is a method we prefer.
Make the BBQ seasoning blend
Add all of the spices together and mix well. You can easily double this recipe. Store leftover spice blend in a covered container.
Time to eat
Attach corn cob holders to the corn and swirl in butter.
Smother on some mayonnaise.
Sprinkle BBQ seasoning over the top and twirl, twirl, twirl.
Enjoy!
