Smoked Bacon-Wrapped Corn on the Cob

Prep Time 20 mins
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 4  ears corn sweet and shucked
  • pounds bacon sliced
  • 4 tbsp Salted butter melted
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dry basil
  • 1 bunch basil fresh
  • 2 jalapeño peppers thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions
 

  • Prepare smoker to 275 °F
  • Brush on some melted butter. This will moisturize the corn and gives the seasoning a good surface to stick to.
  • Sprinkle the corns with garlic powder and dry basil.
  • Lay a piece of parchment paper and add about 5 slices of bacon alongside each other slightly overlapping one another.
  • Add fresh basil and sliced jalapeno then press everything down so it all sticks together.
  • Make sure to wrap them very tight so they’ll stay together. Transfer to the baking tray.
  • Brush generously with maple syrup.
  • Toss wood chips onto hot coals and transfer the corn to your grill (indirect heat). Make sure to start with the bacon seam side down.
  • Give them a quarter turn every 15 minutes until all of the bacon is crisp and caramelized and the corn is tender, about an hour to cook.
