Espigas de milho defumadas (receita fácil para iniciantes)

Ingredientes

• 4 ears corn (husks on)
• 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh black pepper

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Gently pull back the husks on the ears of corn. Remove the silks. Place the husk back on.

2. 2

   Soak the ears of corn in water for at least one hour, up to overnight. This helps prevent the corn from drying out.

3. 3

   While the corn is soaking, make the butter by mixing together the softened butter, salt, and pepper. When the corn is done soaking, gently pull the husks back and brush the corn with the butter mixture all over. Replace the husks.

4. 4

   Preheat the smoker to 225°F. Place the ears of corn directly on the grates and smoke for 45 minutes, up to 1 hour, to your desired tenderness. Serve with more butter, salt, and pepper if desired.
