Step 1 Cook the corn on the cob until just tender. In my opinion the best way to cook corn for this recipe is to grill it. To grill the corn, remove the husks and silk. Place on the grill and close the lid. Turn every 5 minutes or so until cooked and beginning to char in places.

Step 2 In a bowl mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Spread a thin layer on the mayo mixture on each ear of corn.
