Instructions
  1. Fire up your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Grill the husked corn, turning now and then, until charred and tender, about 10 to 12 minutes. Let it cool, then slice off the kernels and transfer to a mixing bowl.
  3. To the bowl of corn, stir in mayonnaise, sour cream, cilantro, cotija cheese, lime juice, and optional lime zest until well combined.
  4. Season both ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare or until your preferred doneness. Rest the steaks before slicing thinly against the grain.
  5. Warm the tortillas on the grill for about 1 minute per side until pliable and lightly charred.
  6. Assemble by laying several slices of steak on each tortilla, then spoon a generous portion of the elote mixture on top.
  7. For extra heat, add thinly sliced jalapeños over the elote. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
