1/2 cup margarine, softened
1 teaspoon bolner jalapeno seasoning salt
1 teaspoon gebhardt chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions:
1. Peel back the husks and carefully remove all the corn silk (strings).
2. Bring the husks back up around the corn and tie with kitchen string.
3. Soak the corn in cold water for 30 minutes.
4. In a bowl, combine the margarine, jalapeno salt, chili powder and garlic powder.
5. Mix with a fork until well blended.
6. After draining the water from the mesquite chips, add the chips to a medium heat grill.
