Elotes aka Mexican Street corn

[pucho812]

This is a must. So yummy and so easy to make. While I don’t have a specific recipe I follow the basics are grilled corn on the cob. Butter, mayonnaise, sour cream(sometimes depending on the recipe), cojita cheese(Parmesan is a good sub), and chili powder.
I have played around with various recipes and all have been good, different but good.  Worth looking into

the mayo and other toppings don't make it health food but so what live a little.

Its perfect, cooked  corn cut into wheels , then flashed on the barbeque with some butter , ready in moments , no polite way to eat ,just get stuck in ,your guests will be licking their lips and fingers .

You as I flew out this morning this post got me thinking of how in the older days of the brewery we used to exchange food and drink discussions. We still do from time to time but back then it was more common and light hearted.  We should go back to that.
