It'll boil quicker if you bring to a boil first and then add the sugar. wink

If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Sweet white corn is starting to come in on the local farms. Prices have dropped to 5 for $1. Waiting on Brentwood Sweet Corn to start coming in heavy In July. One year there was bumper crop and we were getting them 12 for a dollar for a few weeks.

Boiling corn on the cob should be an offence worthy of death (or at least being infested with the fleas from a thousand cats)! Heathens! The very best way to eat corn on the cob is directly off the stalk, in the field, raw - the way the Lord intended. No salt, no butter. Just the full flavor of nice perfectly ripened sweet corn. πŸ™‚

Any one do burlap corn over a wood fire on a sheet of steel ?

Nice hot fire with the corn in the husk placed on your steel. Cover with burlap and keep wet and steamy with the hose or such. Roast till done.

Most wonderful flavor !!!!!
