Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 6 ears corn (silver queen corn or other white corn)
  • 1/4 cup diced yellow onion (finely diced,(I like to use chopped green onion to add another color)
  • 1/2 cup bacon drippings
  • 1/2 cup butter, divided
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup milk (or 1 cup half-and-half if you want it to be ultra rich)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Over a large cast-iron skillet (or a nice, heavy skillet), cut and scrape the corn off the cobs so that you get the milky corn liquid. Add the onions to the skillet. Turn the heat to high.

  • Step 2: Add the bacon drippings and 1/4 cup of the butter to the skillet. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Cook for 3 minutes, browning the corn before stirring. Reduce the heat to medium.

  • Step 3: Stir in the milk and continue cooking until the milk is absorbed. Add the remaining 1/4 cup of butter. Cook until the butter is melted and mixed throughout.
