How to Make Corn on the Cob in a Crockpot
The taste of fresh sweet corn, hot, juicy and slathered with butter, can bring people eagerly to a summer table. Although corn on the cob tops many summer menus, cooking it in a pot of boiling water can add unpleasant heat to your kitchen. Minimize heat and fuss and make corn on the cob in a crock pot instead. Within a few hours, the corn will be tender and tasty.
Things You'll Need
- Aluminum foil
- Butter
- Salt
- Crockpot
Instructions
-
Remove the shucks and silk from the corn. Discard everything but the ears.
-
Place a square of aluminum foil onto the counter, large enough to wrap around the corn completely. Set the ear of corn in the center of the foil.
-
Spread a light coating of butter over the ear of corn and sprinkle as much salt as you desire.
-
Wrap the aluminum foil securely around the ear of corn and seal it tightly.
-
Place the ear of corn into the crockpot lying horizontally.
-
Wrap additional ears of corn in the same fashion and add them to the crockpot. Fill the crockpot at least half full for best results.
-
Pour about 1/2 cup of water into the crockpot, cover it and set the temperature to high. Cook the corn on the cob for about three to four hours.
-
Remove the ears of corn and unwrap them. They should be hot and tender.
