Instructions
- Preheat the BBQ and spray the grill plates with non-stick spray

- While the corn is cooking, use a zesting tool and add the zest of half of the lime to the butter. Mix to combine.
- Grate the parmesan cheese very fine.
- When the corn is finished grilling remove from grill. Pull back the husks to expose the Cobb however don’t remove the husks. Instead, take the butcher string and tie them so they create a “handle” at the end of the Cobb.
