Open in Pepper →Corn On The Cob Never Gets Old
Corn on the cob is the side that shows up all summer and never wears out its welcome. It cooks fast, feeds a crowd, and kids eat it without being asked twice.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these when the main dish is already handled and they need something on the plate in 15 minutes, or when there's a cookout and everybody's bringing a pan.
Every recipe here is a real way to cook corn: Creamy Cajun Corn on the Cob, Creamy Garlic Butter Corn in a skillet, Cyndi's Airfried Corn with sweet and smoky sauce, Sweet Corn on the Cob with sugar and honey, Crockpot Corn on the Cob, Instant Pot Corn on the Cob, and Grilled Corn on the Cob with Feta and Cilantro.
Quick Tips
- 1
Boil it short
Fresh sweet corn only needs 4 to 6 minutes in boiling water. Any longer and the kernels go tough and chewy.
- 2
Add sugar to the water
A cup of sugar and a tablespoon of honey in the pot sweetens ears that came out bland at the store.
- 3
Dry corn before grilling
Pat the ears dry and brush with oil so they char instead of steam. Turn every 3 to 4 minutes for about 12 minutes total.
- 4
Salt the butter, not the water
Salt in boiling water can firm up the kernels, so season with butter and Cajun or garlic powder after the corn comes out.
