That's where the color test comes in - when the corn turns a beautiful golden yellow, you know it's getting close to done! Just be careful not to overcook it, or you'll end up with a batch of mushy corn that's more suitable for corn pudding than a summer BBQ. But don't worry, with practice, you'll become a pro at spotting that perfect doneness in no time!
Another way to check for doneness is by using the texture test, where you simply take a bite and see if it's tender but still crunchy. And, let's not forget about the smell test - when the corn is done, it will give off a sweet aroma that's impossible to resist! It's all about finding that perfect balance between undercooked and overcooked.
