If you are making the creamed grilled corn and are using a charcoal grill, grill the corn first, then add more briquettes to keep the fire hot while you finish up the corn dish on the stove. Then keep the corn warm, covered, over low heat while grilling the grilled scallions with lemon and pork.

Cooks' notes:

·Barbecue sauce can be made 6 hours ahead and chilled, covered. ·Kebabs can be prepared 6 hours before grilling (without salt or sauce) and chilled, covered with plastic wrap. ·If you aren't able to grill outdoors, cook kebabs in a hot oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.
