(I snipped Phlip's reply since I figured you all have read it and know that
the method is a good one.)

Years ago, when we lived in Japan and attended the Oban festivals, the food
vendors would just this method of cooking corn, then pull the husks down and
twist them into a 'handle' and then brush soy sauce onto the corn and return
it to the grill for a few seconds (turning it by the 'handle') to dry the
soy. It was a wonderful flavour!
