Beautifully Helpful when Grilling Corn on the Cob:

A casual Sunday evening set to christen the new BB-Q Grill and warm the new home. Of course our menu consisted of all things grilled: Pork Chops,  Marinated Mushrooms, Bone-in Chicken, Zucchini, Steak, Seasoned Potato Slices… and, without a doubt, CORN on the COB!…Come on!…It’s summer time on the grill?!…

As having just unloaded the moving truck and not fully unpacked and settled, Ali, our hostess, had no “Corn on the Cob Holders” to serve when it was time to devour the too hot to handle stick of starch. In efforts to resolve her dilemma, Ali simply shucked the corn prior to grilling, leaving the husks still attached at the bottom, and used the remains of the silks and husks to tie the leftovers in a knot! It “knot” only created a handle to hold while eating the roasted corn, but it also was such an interesting and beautiful sight to enjoy with all the colors of lime green, silky white and golden yellow intertwined laying sculpturally twisted on the serving tray!

You should try doing this, whether you find yourself in a Hostess’ pinch or “knot”!

(do be sure to leave the “Husky Handle” hanging off the edge of the grill or away from the flames because it not only easily catches your eye in intrigue, but it will easily catch fire as well..oops!)

Thanks for dinner and what a good idea, Ali!
