  • 1 stick butter or margarine
  • 2 tablespoons bacon drippings
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Remove husks and silks from fresh corn, wash and cut corn off the cob.  Scrape the cob to get out the juice.  Melt butter in a large skillet, add fresh or frozen corn, bacon drippings and sugar.  Cook on medium high heat until corn is done about 15 to 20 minutes. Add salt to taste.

Notes

You can add cooked crumbled bacon to the corn, too.
