I have heard it’s the best easy creamed corn recipe and I’m not going to argue with that.

How to Make Creamed Corn

This recipe is perfect for leftover corn on the cob.

All you have to do is cut the corn right off of the cob into a measuring cup and then throw it into a pot.

I used 4 corn cobs for this recipe – depending on the size of your corn cobs, you may need to use more or less.

You can usually cut off about ¾ of cup from each corn ear but my corn cobs were a little small.

I also made sure that the corn was cooked directly on the grill and not just through the husk. I think this gives a little smokiness to the cream corn.

If you’re watching your calories, then don’t feel bad about removing the bacon.

I don’t think its totally necessary, but just adds a little touch – probably the bacon fat. 🙂 And my favorite saying is, “Everything is better with bacon.”

I’m a dream come true to a pork farmer.

Can I use canned or frozen corn?

There isn’t always time to grill corn, especially if you work or go to school.

Luckily, you can buy fire roasted corn in both canned and frozen varieties.

If you want to use canned corn, use a 16-ounce can and drain it well.

If using frozen corn, make sure it is completely thawed before beginning.

Depending on how you thaw the corn, you may need to drain any liquid that melts from the frozen corn.
