This is a great Southern side dish. Simple, hearty and fantastic. Our guests love it!

  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1/4 lb. salt pork, sliced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 lb. fresh corn, cut from the cob
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • White rice, cooked

In a medium pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add salt pork and onion. Cook until onion is softened, about 3 min.

Add corn, salt, pepper and 3 cups water. Cover and cook over medium heat. Add water as needed to maintain water level. Remember: this is smothered corn, not boiled corn! Cook for about 1 1/2 hours or until corn is completely cooked.
