Remove the husks from the corn, keeping the core intact.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and cilantro.
Once grilled, slather the corn with the mayonnaise mixture using a basting brush.
Squeeze lime juice over the corn and generously sprinkle with Parmesan and cotija cheeses, then add chili powder to taste.

Make sure to grill the corn on high heat for the best char.
