Your smoker isn’t just for meat – fire it up this summer to smoke sweet corn on the cob! It’s the perfect easy side dish for serving a crowd at a barbecue.

Meat is the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about using a smoker, but did you know vegetables can be just as delicious?

We’ve found that one of our absolute favorite foods to cook the smoker is corn on the cob. It’s a simple, hands-off way to make a side dish for a crowd at a barbecue. The smoke adds a really nice hint of flavor that pairs incredibly well with the sweetness of the corn.

How To Make Smoked Corn

Making smoked corn is very easy. I make it in my electric smoker by simply placing it straight on the racks.

What wood chips should I use to smoke corn?

I prefer applewood chips for this recipe. Other fruity chips like cherrywood and peach will also work well.

What temp to smoke corn on the cob?

I try to keep my smoker between 225F and 250F when smoking corn.

How long to smoke corn?

At 225F, your corn should take about 1 hour to smoke.

Can you reheat smoked corn?

Of course! The best way to reheat your smoked corn is to boil a pot of water on the stove, then drop it in. In just 1-2 minutes your corn will be nice and warm.
