To cook corn on an electric grill, follow these steps:
- Preheat the electric grill to medium-high heat.
- Prepare the corn by removing the husk and silk.
- Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk.
- Pat dry the corn using a paper towel.
- Brush the corn with a thin layer of olive oil or butter on all sides. This will help prevent sticking and add flavor.
- Place the corn directly on the preheated grill grates.
- Grill the corn for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. The corn should develop some charred spots and turn a vibrant yellow color.
- To check if the corn is done, insert a toothpick or fork into a kernel. If it easily pierces through and feels tender, the corn is cooked.
- Once cooked, remove the corn from the grill and let it cool for a few minutes. Be cautious as the corn will be hot.
- Serve the corn as is or drizzle it with additional melted butter, sprinkle with salt or your desired seasonings.
Enjoy your perfectly grilled corn on the electric grill!

What are some alternative methods for grilling corn on an electric grill?
There are several alternative methods for grilling corn on an electric grill. Here are a few options:
- Foil-wrapped corn: Wrap the corn in aluminum foil after husking it. This method allows the corn to steam while on the grill. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and cook the foil-wrapped corn for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Direct grilling: Husk the corn and brush it with olive oil, butter, or your desired seasoning. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and place the corn directly on the grates. Grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until the corn kernels are lightly charred.
- Indirect grilling: For a slower and more even cooking method, preheat the grill to medium heat. Husk the corn and brush it with olive oil or butter. Place the corn on the side of the grill away from the direct heat source. Close the grill lid and cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until the corn is tender and lightly browned.
- Grilling in a grill basket: If you have a grill basket or tray, place the husked corn in the basket and brush it with your desired seasoning. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and place the basket directly on the grates. Grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until the corn is cooked and has a nice char.
Remember to adjust cooking times based on the size and freshness of the corn. Enjoy your grilled corn!
Can I use a grill basket for grilling corn on an electric grill?
Yes, you can use a grill basket for grilling corn on an electric grill. Preheat the electric grill to medium-high heat and place the corn in the grill basket. Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until the kernels are tender and lightly charred, usually for about 10-15 minutes. Make sure to brush the corn with butter or oil and season with salt and pepper before grilling for added flavor.
Should I let the corn rest after grilling before serving?
It is not necessary to let corn rest after grilling before serving. However, if you prefer to do so, you can let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the corn to cool down slightly and lets the flavors settle before serving. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference.
How can I ensure that the corn is cooked evenly on an electric grill?
To ensure that the corn is cooked evenly on an electric grill, follow these steps:
- Preheat the grill: Start by preheating the electric grill for about 10-15 minutes on medium-high heat. This will ensure that the grill is hot and ready to cook the corn.
- Prepare the corn: Remove the husks and silk from the corn and rinse them under cold water. Dry them thoroughly with a towel.
- Oil the corn: Brush each corn cob lightly with olive oil or melted butter. This will help them to cook more evenly and prevent sticking.
- Place the corn on the grill: Arrange the corn on the preheated grill, making sure to leave enough space between each cob for even cooking. Close the lid of the grill to trap the heat and create a convection effect.
- Rotate the corn: Every 3-5 minutes, use tongs to rotate the corn on the grill. This will ensure that all sides of the corn are evenly exposed to the heat.
- Check for grill marks: After about 10-15 minutes, check the corn for grill marks. The corn should develop a light char and become golden brown in spots. If the grill marks are not appearing evenly, rotate the cobs again and continue grilling.
- Test for doneness: To check if the corn is cooked, insert a knife into one of the kernels. If it easily goes through and the corn is tender, it is ready to be removed from the grill. If not, continue grilling for a few more minutes.
- Rest and serve: Once cooked, remove the corn from the grill and allow it to rest for a few minutes. This will make it easier to handle. Serve the corn warm with butter, salt, and any desired toppings or seasonings.
By following these steps, you can ensure that the corn on your electric grill is cooked evenly, resulting in deliciously charred and tender corn every time.
