Wow, I feel so low-tech. I just remove as much of the silk as I easily can from the top and fling them on the grill, try to remember to pull them off before they go up in flames.
Always turns out great for me. I guess I'm easily pleased. It's probably amazing I haven't poisoned any of my poor dinner guests.
It's a poke in the eye with a corn cob to all those guys who said I was high-maintenance! ;P
