Rinse corn cobs under water and pat dry.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Wrap 2-3 pieces of bacon around each corn cob.
Wrap the bacon wrapped corn in foil, ensuring the ends are completely covered in foil and turned inwards.
Grill for about 40-45 minutes, turning every ten minutes. (10 minutes for all four sideKeep grill cover on when not turning.
40 minutes into grilling, open a packet to check for done-ness. Corn kernels should be tender and bacon should be starting to get crispy.
Serve with fresh cilantro.

The most important part of this recipe is rotating the corn often. One tip you can share with your readers is to place the corn in a line so they don’t lose track of what they have rotated.
Towards the end of cooking, you can open the foil and see if any sides need to cook a little more. You can finish the last few minutes with the foil open, rotating as needed.
There is no need for any extra seasoning with this recipe, the corn soaks up a rich smoky bacon flavor and that’s really all you need.
You can prep this dish before hand and keep in the fridge until it’s time to grill.
When serving this dish, you don’t need any utensils … just lots of napkins!
