How to Make Corn on the Cob in a Slow Cooker

Updated with a video from Mikey!

 

Cris here.

I just love this recipe for making corn on the cob in my crockpot or slow cooker.

I was so excited to head back to my friend Leah’s farm to literally pick my own corn this year! (Confession– okay I have been back twice!) I had the fun opportunity to actually pick the same corn we saw planted earlier in the season a few weeks ago. And then this last time we headed to Leah’s farm with Indiana’s Family of Farmers to have the treat of learning Miss Leah’s No-Cook Method of Freezing Corn and taking home tons of corn for the freezer.

Fun Farm Fact

Did you know that most of the corn you see in the fields of Indiana are NOT sweet corn? Actually only about 1% of the corn grown in the U.S. is sweet corn. The rest is mainly field corn (for animal feed, ethanol, etc.). So don’t go hopping out of your car and picking an ear or two in some random field… you might not get what think you’re getting…

Curious about corn? Check out my friend Marybeth’s post that explains it more.

On the Cob or Off?

So now that my freezer is full for the winter, I had to get down to the business of fixing up a batch of Crock Pot Corn on the Cob in my slow cooker. I just LOVE corn on the cob, don’t you? Well– actually, I love eating fresh corn cut off the cob but that is a debate I know a lot of others feel strongly about 😉 On or off the cob– that is the question.

 

cuts corn off the cobPsst… my fellow off-cobbers should check out this cool little gizmo  that makes cutting it off the cob a zip! Also for you on-the-cobbers, this Corn Zipper does make it super easy to cut the corn off the cob for salads or freezing corn. I used one at Leah’s to help with the task of cutting corn off hundreds of ears.

Regardless of your preference– I think you are going to love this recipe. Unlike a lot of other slow cooker corn on the cob recipes, this one does not require you to wrap your corn individually in foil. Instead, it is a super-time saver. You just dump your cobs in with a little water to steam them for a couple hours and then drain and toss in the delicious herb butter…. Mmmm….mmm!

 

Crock Pot Corn on the Cob Notes

  • I followed the same method and whipped up the same herb butter that I did for the Crock Pot Parsley Potatoes recipe that I found in Gooseberry Patch’s 101 Super-Easy Slow-Cooker Recipes Cookbook and the corn turned out ah-mazing.
  • We love our Corn Zipper to make getting corn off the cob so easy.
  • We used a 6 quart slow cooker to cook up our corn. You can use a bigger or smaller crock pot depending on how many ears you want to cook.
  • Need your buttery corn faster? Check out our Instant Pot Corn on the Cob.
  • Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
  • Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
  • As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
  • All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

I actually got the idea for this corn on the cob from my very favorite Crock Pot Parsley Potatoes. You remember the ones… the ones that my hubby was crazy about?
