Come this time of year, I could totally live on Instant Pot corn on the cob, grilled corn in the husk, and cold watermelon. I know, it probably wouldn't be the healthiest of meals, but sometimes on a hot day the last thing I wanna do is turn the stove on to make dinner; and sometimes we're just not that hungry.

Instant Pot corn on the cob takes 5 minutes to make (well, maybe 10 minutes with prep time). What's not to love about that?

Once you've shucked all the corn, wash it well, again getting rid of any leftover silks. A veggie scrub brush works great for this, or you can just use your hands.

Before continuing, turn your Instant Pot on to the Keep Warm setting, and allow it to heat up while you're prepping the corn.
