Ingredients

4 ears/cobs of corn
Olive oil to taste
Salt & pepper to taste
Cajun seasoning to taste

Instructions

Preheat BBQ to high heat.
Remove the husks and silk from the corn.
Coat each cob with olive oil and then sprinkle the seasoning and salt & pepper on. Note: some Cajun seasoning brands are very salty, so skip salt & pepper if this is the case with what you're using.
Turn the burners that the corn will be on down to medium (we keep the other burners on high to keep the inside of the BBQ really hot, but don't worry about this if you've got a smaller grill/you're using charcoal etc.).
Place the corn on the grill. Grill the corn for about 13-15 minutes total, turning 4-5 times (use tongs to make this easy).
Let the corn cool for a few minutes and serve cobs as-is or cut the kernels off the cob (I place cobs in a large bowl and then use a sharp knife).

Notes

Feel free to make as many/few cobs of corn as you like/fit on the grill!
I have a gas BBQ and cook the corn with the lid down. Keep in mind each BBQ/grill/grill pan is different, so adjust timing as needed.
