4. Grill the Corn
While the ribs finish, place the husked corn directly on the grill over medium-high heat. Turn frequently until the kernels are charred and tender (about 10-15 minutes). Brush with butter and sprinkle with salt and your choice of seasonings.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Let the ribs rest a few minutes before slicing between the bones. Serve alongside the buttery grilled corn for a meal that’s smoky, sweet, and utterly satisfying.
Tips for Ultimate Flavor
- For extra depth, marinate the ribs overnight in the rub.
- Experiment with different wood chips for varying smoke profiles — applewood offers a sweeter smoke, while mesquite gives a bold punch.
- Add a squeeze of fresh lime over the corn just before serving to brighten the flavors.
