Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer BBQ side dish featuring grilled corn on the cob glazed with a savory miso honey butter that balances sweet, smoky, and umami flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ears fresh corn on the cob, husks removed
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste (Shiro miso recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (raw honey preferred)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Chopped fresh chives or parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Husk the corn and remove the silk. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with a towel. (About 5 minutes)
  2. In a small bowl, combine softened unsalted butter, white miso paste, honey, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and well incorporated. (5 minutes)
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F to 400°F. If using charcoal, let the coals settle to an even heat with a light ash coating. (10 minutes)
  4. Place the corn directly on the grill grates. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning every 3 to 4 minutes with tongs to get an even char. Watch for light blackened spots but avoid burning.
  5. Remove the corn from the grill and while still hot, brush generously with the miso honey butter mixture. (3 minutes)
  6. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper, a pinch of sea salt, and chopped fresh chives or parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

If the butter glaze thickens, soften it with a 10-second microwave zap before spreading. Rotate corn frequently on the grill to avoid burning. For vegan version, use dairy-free butter and substitute miso with tamari or coconut aminos. Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 2 days and reheated gently on grill or skillet.
