Ingredients
Scale
- 6 ears of fresh corn, husked
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened butter. Ensure its at room temperature for easy mixing.
- Add the minced garlic to the bowl.
- Mix in the Dijon mustard for tanginess.
- Pour in the Worcestershire sauce and fresh lemon juice.
- Sprinkle in the smoked paprika and cayenne pepper, adjusting the cayenne to your preferred spice level.
- Season with salt and black pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Fold in the chopped parsley and chives.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Husk the corn, removing all silk and outer leaves. Rinse under cold water.
- Pat the corn dry with a paper towel.
- Generously slather the cowboy butter over each ear of corn, covering every inch.
- Reserve any leftover butter for dipping or future use.
- For grilling, place the buttered corn directly on the grill grates. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.
- For oven roasting, place the buttered corn on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Roast for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.
- Monitor the corn to prevent burning, aiming for a charred and tender finish.
- Remove the corn from the grill or oven carefully.
- Optionally, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the hot corn.
- Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley and chives if desired.
