BBQ Veggies, Roasted Corn

[Hippieforever99]

1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons chives finely chopped
2 tablespoons parsley chopped
pinch of salt and pepper
8 ears corn

Prepare corn by peeling back the husk but do not remove and remove the silk. If the husks feel dry, soak the whole ears in water for 15-30 minutes to replenish the moisture. Melt butter and combine with chives and parsley. Brush corn with butter mixture salt and pepper. Recover the corn with the husks. Roast husks over hot coals, turning frequently for 30 minutes.

Neat idea and so simple. I've been removing the silk, replacing the husks and soaking for a few hours, but never thought of pre buttering. Any time I use this method, company raves and want to know how it ended up so moist and sweet.
Next time the butter goes on first.
Thanks
