Author Notes: Delicious side for any summer meal. - abuck
Serves 15
- 20 ears of corn
- 6 fresh ripe tomatoes
- oil, salt, pepper, good quality paprika
- Prepare a charcoal grill to high heat. Prepare a large pot of heavily salted boiling water.
- Cut all of the ears of corn in half, this will make it easier to remove the kernels.

Nice recipe, thanks. We made this last night and it was yummy! Used smoked paprika as that's what I had at hand.
