Crock pot corn on the cob
Crock pot corn on the cob is prepared by brushing husked ears with olive oil, seasoning with salt and pepper, then slow-cooked in a crock pot with water. The process gently steams the corn until tender and bright yellow. Final basting with butter adds richness before serving. This method offers a hands-off way to cook multiple corn ears evenly and keep them warm for a longer time.
Ingredients
- 8 corn on the cob
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup water
- 2 Tbsp butter
Instructions
- Husk and clean all the ears of the corn on the cob. Brush the olive oil on the corn and season with the salt and pepper.
- Add the 1 cup of water to the crock pot. Place the corn in the crock pot and cover.
- Cook on high for 3-4 hours. Once the corn is a bright yellow color and done. Rub the corn with the butter and serve warm.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- A 6-quart crock pot works well, but adjust the size to suit the number of corn ears and crock pot capacity.
- Breaking the corn into smaller pieces can help them fit if your crock pot is smaller.
