Maple Bacon Corn
Maple - Bacon and Corn is an almost perfect sidedish for your next BBQ or Picnic. Smokey sweet and
salty with just enough greasy goodness to please any barbeque fan.
It tastes almost as good once it cools off as it does hot making it ideal for picnics and
parties.
The recipe is so easy even a Dad can do it. It keeps well and even
improves with age -- so feel free to make it a day or two before and store it in the refridgerator. Reheat it on
the grill before serving.
The amounts of the ingredients were written as vague as possible on purpose so that you can make it to suit
your tastes. You really cannot mess up this wonderful dish. So just make as much or as little as you
like.
Maple Bacon Corn
Ingredients:
- Some - Bacon - about a 1/2 pound to a pound
- Some - Sweet Corn Kernals, Fresh if possible - about 2 to 4 cups
- 1 Bottle REAL Maple Syrup
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Directions:
- Cook the bacon in a large enough pan until it is done. You know how to cook bacon.
Then let it cool and break it into small pieces. Drain pan if there is an excessive amount of grease but leave
enough to cook the corn.
- Cook the corn in the bacon grease until tender. Add bacon and stir in a tablespoon or
so of the syrup. Add a dash of salt and pepper -- then taste. Add more syrup, salt and pepper if needed until
it is just right.
- Serve warm if you can or cool if you must. It's good either way.
Always use REAL maple syrup. Life is too short to eat junk.
This recipe was developed by Mark after seeing a similar, less sweet concoction on the TV show, Top Chef.
This version is better.
