Ingredients
- 6 corn ears (sweet corn)
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoon bacon grease
- 6 bacon slices
- Sugar, to taste
- Salt and ground pepper, to taste
How to Make
-
Step 1: Over a big bowl, cut the kernels off the ears of corn, then gently scrape the knife against the cobs to encourage their milky liquid to drip into the bowl.
-
Step 2: Melt the butter and bacon grease over medium heat in a large (preferably cast iron) skillet. Add the bacon, and when it starts to cook, stir in the corn. Simmer 8-10 minutes, until tender, stirring frequently. If the corn seems to be drying out, add a bit of hot water to keep it moist. If the corn is not particularly sweet, sprinkle on sugar to taste.

Step 3: Add salt and pepper to taste.
