    Well we are coming onto fresh corn season, so this should be a recipe you take a look at. Just good down south cooking.

    You can do this with fresh corn but you need to cook it longer in the boiling stage. The corn oils can will supplement the bacon drippings. (bacon drippings? OMG. Yeah we keep a jar in the fridge) Yesterdays corn on the cob works great. The way we fix ours it has some butter and salt already added which enhances the taste.
