It's hard to imagine anything better than freshly picked ears of corn roasting to golden-brown goodness on the grill. One taste of our Honey-Ginger Barbecue Sauce and you'll be wondering why you ever stuck to plain ol' butter. This sweet and tangy sauce transforms the season's staple produce into a standout, flame-kissed favorite.

Ingredients
Makes 8 servings
Step 1
PrepareHoney-Ginger Barbecue Sauceand divide equally into two bowls.
Step 2
Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high for gas); seeGrilling Procedure..
Step 3
Drizzle corn with oil on a large rimmed baking sheet, and sprinkle evenly with salt. Lightly rub oil and salt into corn.
Step 4
Oil grill rack, then grill corn (covered only if using gas), turning frequently, until lightly browned and tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Move corn to different positions on grill if hot spots are present. Brush corn with some of prepared sauce and grill, turning, until sauce is hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with reserved sauce.
•Corn can be shucked 2 hours ahead.
•If grilling both the corn and theGrilled Shrimp with Honey-Ginger Barbecue Saucegrill the corn first, then keep it warm on a tray loosely covered with foil. If you are using hardwood charcoal, you don't want more than about 1 layer of charcoal for the corn because more will cause it to burn before it cooks through. When the corn is done, add more charcoal to grill the shrimp.
