Aka street corn. We went to a great Mexican place in Vegas a few weeks ago one of there appetizers was Elotes Asados on or off the cob. We like if off as you can dip chips with it and it went great with the Smokey Mezcal cocktails we were drinking. Once we got back I'd been craving it so I fired up the grill and went to town!







Scrape into a bowl. Add a good queso, cilantro, jalapeño, salt, pepper, garlic, chipotle, and fresh squeezed lime.






ENJOY!!!!

Hello Case.  As I am sure you are aware, there are several different versions of corn salsas in Mexican/Tex-Mex cooking.  This one looks REALLY nice.  Will give 'er a try.  Thanks for sharing.  Keep Smokin!

Thanks Danny! Yep traditionally this would be served on the cob. We like to scrape it off though so we can dip it with chips and add to tacos. When served on the cob it's dipped in line butter or mayo lime butter then roles in seasoning.

Looks tasty Case ! Gotta give this a go, thanks ! Thumbs Up

Thanks Justin! It's super easy and super tasty! Going to use the leftovers this morning, breakfast burritos!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Elotes. Went to a local (weekly running) street fair not far from where I live and they had "Corn in a cup" or Elotes.  It was a Salvadoran stand so I ordered the wife and I each 1.  Loved it so much I have been making it here a lot.

Roasted corn (off the cob)

Dollop of mayo

Cotija Cheese

Hot Sauce (made my own following a Salvadoran recipe I found)

and some fresh lime juice. 

HOLY MOLY is that stuff good. 

Great job on the Elotes!!!

Thank you! Yeah it's awesome goodness!!! We usually take it off the cob so we can dip and use it in other dishes. But there's nothing like walking down the street gnawing on a cob at fair! I guess if ya had a T-bone in one hand Elotes in the other and a Cervaza in your back pocket that might be better!
