ToadSprocket 12 Posted July 22, 2017 I love Silver Queen boiled for 15 minutes or so in water with a little milk and some butter and a dash of sugar. But my question is do u eat from left to right, right to left, maybe just a swath going around and round. Or maybe u have another way u eat it. Possibly, you've never thought about your method .. if u have one. I was having dinner recently with about 6-7 people. Everyone ate corn on the cob and I watched everyone eat it differently. Some all at one time, others would nibble some and set it down to eat other food. Me with corn skewers, go left to right and back again like a serpentine fantasy draft. With the slightly smaller radius on the left. ETA: sprinkle generously with salt and peppercorn mix and slather in real butter before eating Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,338 Posted July 22, 2017 Left to right. My dad cooks it about the same way you described. The man can cook dam good. Corn down here is pretty cheap and dam good. There's a farm near where I grew up that sells corn and is pretty famous around here for their corn being the best around. They sell the silver queen but the guy who runs the farm went and got an agriculture degree from one of the big schools in NC. He crossbred until he developed his own special strain of corn. It's a sweet yellow corn but the kernels pop right off when you bite into it. And it's amazingly sweet. While shucking some a few weeks ago your hands would get sticky from the natural sugar coming from it. Even my wife, who's from Nebraska where corn is all they know, said it's the best corn she's ever had Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted July 22, 2017 Real butter, lots of salt and pepper. Eat it like one of those kids on TV with the flies on their mouths would, if they had butter or salt or pepper or corn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 5,172 Posted July 22, 2017 I rotate it down vs across. Because I slather it in butter and salt, I feel like the across method takes off too much of that stuff above and below the row being eaten, due to ancillary contact with the lips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bier Meister 1,512 Posted July 22, 2017 My cooking method is similar.. I use more sugar and cook a little longer. Eat it either left to right, or cut it off the cob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shotsup 831 Posted July 22, 2017 My cooking method is similar.. I use more sugar and cook a little longer. Eat it either left to right, or cut it off the cob I'm sure it is just in my head but I think it tastes better this way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bier Meister 1,512 Posted July 22, 2017 I'm sure it is just in my head but I think it tastes better this way. Its preferential. Sometimes off the cob I will put it in a pan a melt some butter, and add misc seasonings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,631 Posted July 22, 2017 For focks sake people - If you take the corn off the cob, you're not eating corn on the cob. Geesus. I'm sure it's a great side dish for boneless ribs. Finish off with a stickless popsicle or an ice cream cone with no cone. wash it all down with some iceless iced tea whydon'tcha? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,631 Posted July 22, 2017 Funny but not true Couldn't BE any more true. If you believe corn with no cob is corn on the cob, then you believe chicks with diicks are chicks. 12 Colossus 1:9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BUT if I am cooking corn on the cob and cut it off the cob directly after cooking it ? Corn on the cob dude. Tastes even better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,940 Posted July 22, 2017 Technically, unless you're also chewing and swallowing the cob, the corn is off the cob the instant you rip it off with your teeth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
