Fireside Elote

Ingredients:

  • 6 ears of fresh corn, kept in their husks
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons chipotle powder
  • 1 tablespoon Amplify (optional) by Hardcore Carnivore
  • Juice from 1 lime
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • A dash of black pepper
  • 3-4 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1-2 ounces crumbled cojita cheese (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Soak the corn, still in the husk, for approximately 1 hour.
  2. Preheat your Kamado Joe Smoker to 350°F.
  3. Place the corn directly onto the grill while it’s still in the husk. Close the lid and allow it to smoke for around 1 hour and 10 minutes.
  4. While the corn is cooking, prepare the sauce.
  5. In a bowl of medium size, mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, chipotle powder, lime juice, Amplify (if using), salt, and pepper.
  6. Mix thoroughly until well combined, then set aside.
  7. After the corn has smoked, take it out and carefully peel back the husks (the silk should come off easily).
  8. Generously apply the sauce over the corn and top with chopped cilantro and the optional cojita cheese.
  9. Enjoy immediately after serving.
