I can't wait until it's summer and the corn is as high as an elephants eye.

My method is a littel different. I prefer to butter the ears, put lemon pepper or any variety of spices all over the corn, then wrap the husks back up over them. Either way, it is very, very good. Fiesta Barbeque has also come up with these tasty methods for cooking vegetables over a fire.

How to Cook Corn on the Grill

Grilled corn, with its sweet taste and tender, yet crunchy texture, is a family favorite. Grilling corn produces a mellow smell that is the quintessence of summer. Make this treat even in the middle of winter and you'll feel like it's August!

Almost any vegetable will have amazing flavour when grilled on your Fiesta BBQ. You can remove the husk and cook the corn wrapped in aluminum foil, but for the best flavour, remove only the silk and BBQ the corn right in the husk. Grilling corn on the cob this way is simple and tastes great.

Here are Fiesta Barbeque's tips for grilling corn on the cob.

1. Place corn cobs in cold water and soak for 10-20 minutes.
2. Peel back (but don't remove) the husks from an ear of corn.
3. Remove and discard the silk.
4. Bring the husk back over the cob. Tie the ends with string and cover ends with foil to prevent burning.
5. Grill the corn 6" above the heat, on medium, turning frequently, until husks are dry and brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
6. Serve hot off the grill, with butter and salt and pepper to taste. Barbequing corn has never been so easy! Or try our recipes for grilling corn.

Other Popular Grilled Vegetables
Tip: Smaller vegetables should be placed in a grill basket or on a grill topper, but larger varieties, like corn on the cob, can be cooked directly on the grid.

Mushrooms
Wash fresh mushrooms quickly under running water, then pat dry. Skewer or place in a grill basket. Brush with oil and grill for 5-7 minutes. Whole portabello mushrooms take 10-20 minutes, depending on their size.

Onions
Slice thickly and brush with oil. Cook onions directly on the grid on medium-high heat until they start to turn brown. You can also roast an onion by cutting it in half, wrapping it in foil with a little butter, and cooking it for about 30-45 minutes on medium.

Peppers
You can cook sliced peppers, but they are very tasty when grilled whole. Barbeque on high until skin is charred black, about 15-20 minutes. Cool in a paper bag for 15 minutes to loosen blackened skin. Peel and remove seeds.

Potatoes
Wrap baking potatoes in foil. Cook on medium for 25-30 minutes or until tender.
