Ingredients

  • 6 slices bacon
  • 8 large cobs fresh corn, preferably white, shucked and cleaned
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Directions

In a large skillet, (seasoned cast iron does well here) cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crisp. Turn off the heat and transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Reserve the drippings in the pan.

On a cutting board, cut the stalk ends of the corn cobs to make a flat surface; stand them up and shave the corn from the cobs with a sharp chef's knife. Return the skillet to medium-low heat, and add the corn kernels. With the back of the knife, firmly scrape the cobs over a shallow plate to extract as much liquid (milk) as possible and add it to the skillet.

Season corn lightly with salt and pepper and cook until broken down and creamy, about 30 to 45 minutes, stirring often; add water if the pan gets too dry.

Serve warm or at room temperature.

Note: Crisp bacon can be crumbled over the creamed corn when serving or reserved for another use. If you have bacon drippings on hand, use 1/4 cup for this recipe.

    i had high hopes for a tasty dish. it was tasty, but i felt very guilty eating it and feeding it to my family- the flavors were yummy, but how can you go wrong cooking anything in bacon grease! im not sure i would go through the cutting of the corn off the cob and 40 mins of cooking again just to taste corn and bacon.

    This recipe is absolutely great. It was not dry. I was able to exact a lot of the corn milk and a little bit of water during the cooking process did make this recipe very creamy. Absolutely better than the creamed corn from a can. Thank you Caire. Thumbs up!!!!
