8 ears corn
1 lb bacon
water, for soaking
butcher string
Carefully expose the corn kernels by pulling back the husk, but do NOT remove the husk. Remove the corn silk (you can use a soft brush to ensure that all the silk is removed). Put water in a large container, add the corn, and soak the corn in the husks for 30 minutes. This will help to prevent the husks from charring on the grill. Preheat grill to medium temperature.
Remove the soaked corn from the water and pat dry. Sprinkle on some Slap Yo Momma (salt, pepper, powdered garlic, & cayenne), or Lawry's Seasoned Salt. Wrap strips of bacon around the corn kernels on each ear; fold the husks back over the bacon and kernels. Tie the husks down with butcher string; repeat with all ears of corn.
Grill over medium coals/heat, turning occasionally, for about 15 to 20 minutes and until the bacon is cooked and the corn is tender. Cut the butcher string away from the husks and serve.
