So much work for so little flavor!! The steak really didn't pick up the flavors of the rub; needs a kick. Maybe more Dijon (& I am not a Dijon fan, but it didn't come through at all)and definitely some Worchestershire.As for the corn - wow- SO DISAPPOINTING! Lots of work, lot of time standing at a hot grill and no big flavors. In fact, you really couldn't pick out any distinct flavors. We LOVE corn and we LOVE tomatoes, in fact we love all the ingredients - surely the combo would be great. Not so much. And we are in the peak of tomato, corn & bean season - there isn't a better time for this recipe. Some recipes I will try again with tweaks, but not this one. I'm done. Will move on to other recipes. Oh, and the tomato butter - tasted great on my finger when I sampled it, but it did nothing for the meal. Since it took a fair amount of butter, I'll freeze the remainder; could be good on scrambled egss or grilled bread. FC - this was a big let-down.By the way, if you want a really GREAT,FANTASTIC recipe for a corn saute, look up "Corn Saute with Ginger, Garlic & Fresh Cilantro" FC#87. It is fabulous - my corn loving husband called it "Corn's Finest Hour". And it's way easier than this recipe.
