Ingredients

  • 6 ears corn husked
  • 3 Tablespoons butter divided
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Aluminum Foil necessary for wrapping the corn

Instructions

  • Cut 6 sheets of aluminum foil, big enough to wrap each ear of corn individually.
  • Place the corn in the center of the foil and top with about ½ Tablespoon of butter.
  • Sprinkle it with salt and pepper and seal tightly in the foil.
  • Place the foil wrapped corn into the slow cooker and cook for about 3 hours on low heat.
  • Remove the corn from the slow cooker, unwrap and adjust butter, salt and pepper as needed.

Notes

  • Small slow cooker. If you have a smaller slow cooker, try cutting the ears of corn in half before seasoning and wrapping them. They should fit better in the bottom of the pot.
  • Skip the foil. Can’t wrap your slow cooker corn on the cob in foil? Cover the bottom of the pot with water and steam the corn instead!
  • Check for doneness. If you are unsure if the corn is cooked, pierce a corn kernel with a fork. If it is tender and slightly crisp, it’s ready!
