Perfect way to use up some fresh corn and feed a crowd. I used 11 cobs for 10 people. Didn't add much more spices as this crowd of folks aren't much for trying anything new and someone else said it was a bit spicy for their taste. All agreed it was very good! - 10/2/11

Very tasty! I left out the salt and used only 1/2 tsp. black pepper. I thought the spices were still a bit too sharp, however. Next time I will cut back on the garlic and chili powder just a little. This would also be good with some pre-chopped onion and bell pepper added that I keep frozen. - 8/17/09
