Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Mix butter, salt, and pepper in a small bowl; set aside.

Grill, turning occasionally, until slightly charred and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer corn to a large platter, pull back husks, and spread with reserved butter.
• Do Ahead: Butter can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before spreading over corn.
