In a small bowl, whip together 2 tablespoons of the butter with the lime zest, lime juice, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Set aside.
Using a pastry brush, very lightly brush corn with the chili lime buttery spread, then salt and pepper to taste.
Wrap each ear in aluminum foil and place on a med-high grill. Grill for about 25 minutes, turning several times until done to your satisfaction. (Some like it charred and others do not).
Remove from heat and unwrap the foil. Top with cheese (optional) and serve with slices of lime for additional flavor.
