Put it in the microwave as is, shuck and all for 5 minutes in my small microwave at work. Take it out and cut the big end off. squeeze it from the top and that ear comes out clean. How have I not discovered this sooner? "In time of war, send me all the Alabamians you can get, but in time of peace, for Lord's sake, send them to somebody else." General Edward H.

Sprinkle liberally with McCormick's Grill Mate Roasted Garlic and Herb seasoning and toss it on a hot grill for about 5 min flipping to achieve an all around, slight char. Drizzle with butter and you can thank me later.
