Nothing screams Summer quite like corn on the cob. But here’s a recipe to upgrade corn on the cob for mouthwatering, sweet, and spicy street corn that is sure to impress your guests at your next cookout!
Instructions
- Shuck corn. Take care to make sure all silk has been removed.
- Use a sharp knife and the two bowl method to remove the corn kernels from the cob.
- Stack the bacon slices on top of each other.

- Dice your sweet onion.
- Roughly chop the jalapeno rings to break them up slightly.
- Preheat your Char-Griller Flat Iron Griddle to medium-high and set it for two-zone cooking.
- Render the bacon first, cooking it to about 80% done.
- Slide the bacon to the cool side of the griddle.
- Sauté the onion in the bacon grease for three minutes.
- Add the jalapenos to the onion and cook for an additional three minutes.
- Slide the jalapeno and onion to the cool side of the griddle.
- Add the corn to the warm side of the griddle and sauté for two minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add a tablespoon or two of water or oil if the corn seems to be sticking to the griddle
- Once corn is charred to your liking, mix everything together, put in a bowl and serve!
