This air fryer corn on the cob recipe nets slightly charred and juicy kernels flavored with a delicious Jamaican jerk compound butter.
When we make this recipe at home, we call the corn “So Gone” because that’s exactly what happens, I.e. it’s so gone before you even know it. It takes just as little time (10 minutes) to cook it as it does to eat it.

I kept the ingredients to just a few. It’s fresh corn plus compound jerk butter which is just dry jerk spice seasoning mixed with softened butter.
