Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 ears Corn on the cob (fresh, husked)
- 6 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper (optional)
Instructions
Husk the corn and remove any silk. Rinse the ears of corn under cold water.
Place each ear of corn on a sheet of aluminum foil. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and a pinch of salt to each ear. You can also sprinkle black pepper, if desired.
Wrap each ear of corn tightly in the aluminum foil, ensuring there are no gaps.
Place the wrapped corn inside the crock pot. Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of the slow cooker, but do not pour directly over the corn.
Cover the crock pot with a lid and set it to cook on high for 2 hours, or on low for 4 hours.
Carefully remove the corn from the crock pot using tongs (it will be hot). Unwrap the foil and serve immediately, adding extra butter or seasonings as desired.
