    I've cooked corn in the husk with chicken, indirect. You'll want to put the ears on the edges of the grate that are right above the "gaps" in the plate setter so they get more heat. I usually peel back the husks, silk the corn, rub on a little butter, sprinkle of salt and black pepper, and then roll the husks back up and tie them off with some twine. They're ready to go right off the grill.

    For 4 ears of corn (multiply for more):[p]1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
    2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
    1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
    1 teaspoon minced fresh basil
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 large clove garlic, crushed[p]Pull back the husks on the corn (leave attached at base) and remove silks. Rinse the corn and soak in water for 20 minutes, then drain. Combine butter and the other 5 ingredients and stir well. Brush the mixture over the corn, and then pull the husks up. Wrap in heavy-duty aluminum foil twisting at each end to seal. Grill at 350-400 for 35 to 40 minutes or until tender, turning occasionally.

    ijd,
    I put 5 ears in foil with butter and seasoning and about 1/4 cup of water for steam. Cooked on Egg for just under 45 minutes at 400º dome and the corn was crunchy and raw tasting still. It was edible, but it wasn't my favorite corn on the cob.... I prefer the peel back the husk, take of the silks and replace the husks and soak for 30 minutes method.... usually roast corn closer to the fire than the stock grill location will allow.
    I'll try again later in the summer when the corn is a little jucier and sweeter.
