I am known around these parts for doing corn on the cob with the following
method.  It is a hit, only for Hot Heads like me I modify the method.

Shuck corn completely, making sure to get all the hair off.  Place each cob
on a piece of foil.  Spead with butter or margerine and roll up tightly in
the foil with 2 small ice cubes.  Cook on med. grill, turning every five
minutes, for a total cooking time of 35-45 min. depending on your grill.  It
is a steaming action that cooks em up very sweet and tender  Now for the
best part.  I have been mixing Cayenne or Chile Ancho in with the margerine,
then spreading on the corn.  I spose you could use any dried chile, but I
enjoy the taste of the Ancho in this application the best.  I will also
sometimes loosen or open foil toward end of cooking to blacken a wee bit.
YUM!
