frozen corn!! I like to use fresh if at all possible but frozen will work.
Good grilling guys!
I like it, but bacon just freaks some people out. It's a psychological thing. I can load my creamed corn up with heavy cream and brown sugar and they love it, but if you wrap something in bacon they think it's fattening. I will get the same effect without the trauma by using bacon drippings if I want the flavor.
Yeah, I've had a few people who won't eat what I cook or grill because of their "fat" intake and healthy lifestyle. My sister cooks everything without salt and then refuses to put out any salt shakers when we eat. Bland and tasteless, I keep telling her to use sea salt but she won't.
I'm making some beans right now with some nice thick bacon.
I'm not wasting a bunch of time peeling corn and slicing it off the ear for creamed corn if I've got meat on the grill...too many things happening too fast. The flash frozen corn they have now is really good.frozen corn!! I like to use fresh if at all possible but frozen will work.

If I have fresh corn I'm serving it on the ear...
My favorite way to eat fresh corn on the cob is to brush with mayonnaise and cover with fresh grated parmesan and a little tony's and cracked pepper...
Sounds gross but is knock your socks off good...the mayo melts into the corn giving it a lemony bite with the y parmesan crust.
I've tried that mayo thing and it is not for me but know others who like it. I use fresh corn all the time so it is no biggie for me to use it.
But yeah, many use frozen to make things quick.
When I do beans I start by sauteing chopped bacon ends, onions and lard...I will throw in fresh garlic towards the end...maybe a pound of bacon ends, 2 onions, and a couple heaping tablespoons of manteca for 2 pounds of beans. I put the unsoaked beans in the bottom of the pot. When the onions are clear I dump this over the beans, add two cans of habanero rotel, and two diced jalapenos and two diced serranos seeds and all...add water to just cover and simmer till done.
I always pre-soak my beans and use thick bacon, onions, garlic but don't use any lard at all. Very simple but tastes great. I will add some heat and other es to kick it up a notch when I'm having people over though.
We need to have grillin' GTG.
I don't mind frozen corn the fresh corn is a little more firm and has a little snap to it and the frozen corn is soft and more like what people are used to.
If you can't handle fat and bacon then you aren't welcome to at my cook out.
Fresh just tastes better to me that is all.
Salted pork in beans is my favorite.I always pre-soak my beans and use thick bacon, onions, garlic but don't use any lard at all. Very simple but tastes great. I will add some heat and other es to kick it up a notch when I'm having people over though.

I'm sure your customers and wife wish that wasn't true!
What is psychological about bacon? Bacon is delicious! But bacon adds alot of richness that wrecks my digestion. So with all the great flavors in these recipes I don't think I'd miss out on too much just omitting the bacon. `
I personally prefer a purer flavor in my food. When I cook beans, I don't pre-soak cuz I don't like mush. And I cook until tender with absolutely nothing. At the very end I add some salt and that's it. I serve these as a side or use them for frying. If the beans are going to be an entree or as bean soup, is when I add all the extras---bacon, jalapenos, anything else I can find. And an absolute must is in, lots of it.
what is "tony's"?
a dry herb and e mix?
Exactly what i was thinking. We can start with a "Cooking the Cowboy Way" webcast and see where it goes. I have connections in the trail ride, cattle drive, wanna be a cowboy on the weekends business and I believe we could wrangle some sponsorships easily. Whaddya say CC, business partners??Do we need a cooking forum?

We would have to get Shiner as a sponsor too because I can't cook without beer.Exactly what i was thinking. We can start with a "Cooking the Cowboy Way" webcast and see where it goes.

I use it to replace salt a lot...more flavor, less sodium.
I put that on homemade french fries and wings.
