Step by Step Method
Step 1
Carefully peel back the husks for the corn to within 1-inch of the bottom; remove the silk and discard silk.
Step 2
In a bowl combine soft butter with fresh parsley, salt and black pepper; spread over the corn (I use my hands for this). Rewrap corn in the husks. Tie with a heavy string in two places near the top and bottom.
Step 3
Place the corn in a very large bowl; cover with cold water then mix in 2 cups milk into the water (make certain to soak the corn with the string on). Soak the corn in the water/milk mixture for about 30 minutes or a little more (no less than 30 minutes!).
Step 4
Grill the corn covered on the grill over medium heat, and cook for 22-30 minutes or until tender (turning often). Serve with more butter, salt and freshly grated Parmesan cheese (I use a cheese shaker to shake the cheese onto the corn at the table while eating).
