Instructions

Preheat your BBQ or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Trim the ends of each corn cob, then cut each cob in half lengthwise, followed by cutting each half again lengthwise to create quarters.
Arrange the corn in a casserole dish and cover it with bloody mary mix, ensuring it's well coated. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chili lime seasoning over the corn.
Place the corn ribs directly on the hot grill and cook until they are charred, around 8-10 minutes. Flip them over and continue grilling until charred on the opposite side and slightly bent in shape.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, and lime juice; set aside.
Once the corn is grilled to perfection, drizzle the creamy mixture over the corn, and add more chili lime seasoning, cilantro, and cotija cheese if desired.

Notes

For a spicier kick, increase the amount of chili lime seasoning.
Make it vegetarian-friendly by avoiding the cotija cheese or using a substitute.
Ensure the corn is fresh for the best flavor.
