Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 ears Fresh corn on the cob
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Low-carb BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chopped parsley
- 4 pieces Lime wedges
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Shuck the corn, removing all husks and silk. Rinse under cold water to remove any remaining silk.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush each ear of corn with the seasoned olive oil mixture until evenly coated.
Place the corn on the preheated grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, until the corn is tender and has a slight char.
When the corn is nearly done, use a grill brush to coat each ear with the low-carb BBQ sauce.
Grill for an additional 2-3 minutes, turning frequently, until the BBQ sauce has caramelized slightly.
Remove the corn from the grill and let rest for a couple of minutes.
Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for garnish and serve each ear with a lime wedge for squeezing over the top.
