Zesty Grilled Corn on the Cob

Leaving husks and silks on corn, soak for 30 minutes in enough cold water to cover.  Remove corn from water and pull the husks back a little to drain excess water.  Arrange corn on the gril over hot coals and close lid of grill.  Cook 25-30 minutes, turning frequently, until corn is tender.  If husks are too hot to handle, let them cool before removing them from corn.  Squeeze fresh lemon juice over corn.  Sprinkle with salt, pepper and chili powder.
