FAQs & Tips

Should you season the corn before cooking?

It won’t hurt but personally I think it’s best to wait until it’s cooked and let everyone season their own pieces. 

How do you serve this corn?

The sky is the limit! Salt, pepper, butter, etc. I have seen people put tajin on their corn. 

How do you store leftovers?

Store leftover crockpot corn on the cob in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. 

What size slow cooker did you use?

I used a large 6-quart slow cooker or Instant Pot for this recipe. If you have a smaller slow cooker, use less corn!
