So I might have just joined the official slow cooker fan club. I have a house full of sick kids. One of which is both sick and teething. I am living on pure will power right now. So I have been using my slow cooker for almost everything. I have made soup, oats, chex mix– everything in it for the last two days. Although nothing compares to this corn on the cob. Slow-cooker corn on the cob =

So this is my first slow-cooker recipe because I finally got a slow cooker y’all. I mean what kind of food blogger doesn’t have a croc-pot? Me, that’s who!! My mom gave me a early mother’s day gift, one of those fancy slow-cookers that comes with a digital timers.  I am officially in love. I had one of those slow cooker that that doubled as a rice cooker/slow cooker/ maybe even a steamer. I never once used it for anything other than making rice. So this is a Game–changer.

My husbands makes the best corn on the cob. He slow braises them in coconut milk. So when I started to experiment with the slow cooker- I wondered if I could make his corn on the cob in the crock pot…. and the answer is yes. And I dare say it is even better because of the slow braising process.

Oh yes! The aroma of the corn and coconut milk that filled my house was amazing. I love when my house smells that delicious lol.

At this point you can add extra butter- I won’t be mad. You can top that extra butter with cilantro- I really won’t be mad at you. Or you can just eat them straight out of the crock pot- I seriously won’y be mad at you.

Note: The liquid that is left over is pure magic. Don’t throw it away- add it to any corn soup and it will add a extra corn flavor that is pure dy-na-mite!

    Oooooh baby! Cooking maniac indeed! This was the absolute, most delicious corn on the cob I have EVER eaten. The only substitution I made was using Basil because I didn’t have Thyme. My daughter, who is at times, a picky eater, enjoyed this as well. Thank you ever so much for this beautiful and delicious recipe! And yes, coconut milk makes everything better. Again, thank you for sharing this recipe.

    Love this idea!! I would love to take this to a cookout we’re going to. What’s the best way to transport? With or without the juice? Also, would it be totally rude to heat it up when we got there?
