We have been making corn this way for years. It is great when the first of the season fresh corn comes in down here. The silverqueen corn cooked this way ROCKS. Plus you can just freeze the corn right in the husk, take out of the freezer & thaw & then prepare them & pop in the microwave. Great when you are cooking on the grill outside, don't have to worry about burning it.
