- 8 ears fresh corn, husked and cut into 3-inch rounds
- 4 tbsp Salted Perfection Abilene Select Blend
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1.5 cups Cotija cheese, finely crumbled

Step by step
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat! You want it screaming hot!
- Thread the corn rounds onto the soaked skewers. Use two skewers for each stack to keep them from spinning on the grill!
- Whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, and 2 tablespoons of the Salted Perfection Abilene Select Blend in a small bowl until smooth.
- Place the corn skewers on the grill. Cook them for about 8 to 10 minutes, turning often until they are charred and golden all over!
- Remove the corn from the heat. Immediately brush each piece generously with the mayo mixture while the corn is still piping hot!
- Roll the corn in the crumbled Cotija cheese. Press it on there so every kernel is covered!
- Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of Salted Perfection Abilene Select Blend and the fresh cilantro over the top for a final flavor punch.
- Serve these immediately while they are hot and juicy! DUNZO!
