Corn Pudding With Bacon Food

OVEN ROASTED CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place corn husks directly on the oven rack and roast for 30 minutes or until corn is soft. Peel down the husks and use as a handle when eating.

CORN RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F. Cover the bottom of a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• For the ribs: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Using a sharp knife, carefully halve the ears of corn lengthwise (see Cook's Note). Then, cut each half lengthwise, creating 4 equal pieces. Brush each with the olive oil and season the corn with the spice mix. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake until the corn is nicely charred and the slices begin to curl, resembling ribs, 18 to 20 minutes.
• While the ribs bake, make the mustard mayo: Mix together the mayonnaise, BBQ sauce, mustard and honey in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Remove the ribs from the oven and immediately brush with a little bit of the sauce. Transfer the corn ribs to a platter. Sprinkle over the fried onions and the green onions, then serve.

CREAMED CORN CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet into the oven.
• In a bowl, combine the cornmeal, salt, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Whisk together to combine well.
• In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, eggs, and creamed corn, whisking together to combine thoroughly. Add the dry ingredients to the buttermilk mixture and stir to combine. If the batter will not pour, add more buttermilk to the batter.
• Swirl the canola oil in the hot cast iron skillet. Pour the batter into the skillet. Bake until the cornbread is golden brown and springs back upon the touch, about 20 minutes.
