Slow Cooker Creamed Corn

Comments
This recipe is from Bluebonnets and Brownies.  I admit, I love creamed corn.  I only want it about once a year, but I’ve been looking for a good recipe for that yearly craving for a very long time.  It seems like most every recipe I’ve found requires canned corn or canned cream corn and I am not interested in eating, or cooking with, either of those things. 

This recipe, however, called for no strange ingredients and was awesome.  It was everything I wanted, creamy, warm, filling, great corn flavor.  Fantastic.  Art actually had multiple servings, which shocked me because he wasn’t expecting to like it at all.  If I wasn’t so attached to the dishes I currently serve at Thanksgiving, this recipe might almost make the menu. 

Take note that it is a HUGE recipe with the 4 pounds of corn.  I put about half of it into the freezer.  You might consider halving things if 4 pounds of corn would be a ridiculous amount for your family. 

The corn is shown here with “random steaks.”  Art grilled up some mock tender steaks as well as a flat iron from the CSA.  All were scrumptious with just a bit of Weber Garlic and Herb seasoning.
