Directions
- To make the Smoked Cream Cheese, place an 8 oz block of cream cheese on the second shelf of the Yoder Smokers YS640s Pellet Grill and smoke for 2-3 hours at 250ºF. Remove and chill in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Preheat your Yoder Smokers YS640s Pellet Grill to 425ºF, set up for direct grilling (diffuser or diffuser door removed), with the standard grates installed.
- Peel back the husks from the corn. Grill over direct heat until lightly charred on all sides, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from the grill.
- Slice the corn kernels from the cobs.
- Combine your smoked cream cheese, grilled corn, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper in a blender or food processor. Blend until mostly creamy, but not totally smooth.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and lime, as needed.
- Transfer to serving bowl. Top with Chile Crunch/Chile Oil.
- Serve with veggies and chips for dipping.
