This fantastic BBQ corn recipe utilizes the popular combination of sweet honey and the mildly pungent flavor of Dijon mustard.

The sweet honey may have a tendency to burn on a hot grill, so keep a careful eye on the corn to prevent any grill flare-ups. 

To make a slowly smoked corn on the cob, soak the ears of corn in water for a few hours, then rub them down with olive oil and chopped green onions. Leave the husks intact and smoke the corn for about an hour on the grill. The result is a perfect combination of sweet and smoky flavors.
