Description

I remember my father making this dish quite often. Growing up in Indiana, it seems as though we always had corn around! When my father passed away, I was fortunate enough to receive his wonderful cast iron skillet and his recipes, which included this yummy way to prepare corn.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Corn (Fresh—about 6 Ears, Canned Or Frozen)
  • 4 strips Bacon
  • ½ cups Milk
  • ¼ teaspoons Pepper
  • 1 pinch Sugar

Preparation

Fry your bacon until crisp, drain, chop up into small pieces and set aside. In the same skillet that you fried your bacon, place your corn. Cook, but do not stir. When the bottom of the corn has browned (you can check by lifting the corn with a spatula), add the bacon, milk, pepper and sugar. (You can add salt here also, but I find the bacon adds enough salt to the dish.) Stir, cover and cook for about 10 minutes over low heat. Enjoy!

The addition of onion sounds delicious! I will have to try it!

I, too, saute half an onion in the bacon grease, but I also add half a chopped red pepper, too. Then the corn, bacon, sugar, and Frank’s hot sauce. I haven’t tried the milk yet, but plan to do so as soon as the corn comes in!

This is such a great recipe, very similar to mine. The only difference is I add 1/2 of a small sweet onion (Vidalia, Walla Walla, etc.) chopped to the bacon grease and then add the corn. I’m from Missouri and we have lots of corn too! It’s only spring, but I’m already thinking about summer sweet corn!
