Mexican Street Corn Salad + Video

Mexican street corn salad is tangy and sweet with enough heat to make it interesting. Serve it with a weeknight meal or at your next cookout!

The traditional name for Mexican street corn salad is “esquites” and it’s typically served in a portable cup. While the flavor can be similar to “elotes,” the kernels are loose and mixed with other ingredients instead of being left on the cob.

As the weather gets warmer, it’s the perfect time to start making smoked beef roast. You can use it for several nights’ worth of dinners or impress your guests at a weekend get-together.

I like using my smoker for chuck roast because it gets the meat nice and tender. Since this is a tougher cut of meat, the longer cooking time allows the fat to fully render while still getting a nice crust on the outside.
