Crockpot Corn on the Cob

How to Make Crockpot Corn on the Cob

1. Prepare the corn: Husk the ears of corn and remove silk as much as possible.
2. Add corn to the crockpot: Place the corn directly into the slow cooker. If you’re cooking a lot, stack them gently.
3. Add moisture (optional): Pour about 1/2 to 1 cup of water or broth into the crockpot to create steam and keep corn moist.
4. Cook: Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours or on high for 1-1.5 hours. Cooking times may vary based on your slow cooker and the size of the ears.
5. Serve: Carefully remove the corn, brush with butter, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, or your favorite seasonings.

Tips for Perfect Slow Cooker Corn

• Use fresh corn for the best flavor and sweetness.
• Avoid overcooking, as corn can become mushy if left too long.
• Add a squeeze of lime or a sprinkle of chili powder for a zesty twist.
• For a smoky flavor, try adding a dash of smoked paprika or chipotle powder.
