1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, plus more for garnish if desired
2 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp black pepper

GARLIC BUTTER:

3 tbsp unsalted butter
1 garlic clove, finely minced

CORN CUTTING:

Cut corn – Using a sharp knife and a non-slip cutting board, cut off the base and the pointy end of the corn. Stand the corn upright then cut the corn cob in half. Then cut each half again to make quarters. WATCH VIDEO TUTORIAL

COOKING:

Grill or oven – Set grill to high or set oven to 375°F
Garlic butter – Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Then add the garlic and cook for 20 seconds until it smells amazing! Remove from the stove and keep warm/liquid.
Seasoning – mix all your dry seasonings in a small bowl and set aside.
Season corn – Place corn in a large bowl. Toss with olive oil. Then sprinkle the seasoning over gradually, tossing in between, to coat as evenly as possible.
If using grill: Place corn on the BBQ kernel side down. Cook for 8 minutes or until you get charred spots – watch it curl into "ribs"! Then cook each cut side for 1 minute.
If using oven – Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, kernel side up. (Note: the corn doesn't curl as much, also, no charred spots).
Butter it – Transfer corn back into the bowl. Pour over garlic butter and toss.
Serve – Pile onto a plate, sprinkle with parsley, then grab and eat like ribs!
