Cream Corn

This recipe for cream corn is the closest I could get to Rudy’s BBQ version and it’s fantastic! Every time I serve this creamy concoction I get rave reviews and also get asked for the recipe.

If you’ve never been to Rudy’s BBQ or have never heard of it, here’s a little bit about them. Rudy’s Country Store & BBQ is found on many major roadways in Texas. Rudy’s started in the small Texas Hill Country town of Leon Springs, where they were originally a one-stop gas station, garage and grocery store. In the 1980s, they added their now-famous BBQ, where you could order up lunch while you waited. Today, you’ll find many locations for Rudy’s and they still serve up slow smoked Texas Brisket, Turkey, Sausage, Chicken, Ribs and Pork Loin. They are also well known for their buttery potatoes, spicy beans, cole slaw, potato salad, and last but not least, their amazing cream corn! If you go, get it! Oh, also, get their banana pudding. I swear it tastes just like my recipe here!

Try this cream corn side dish with any of these great main dishes! Braised Beef Short Ribs, Smoked Chicken Leg Quarters, Cowboy Meatballs, Hamburger Steaks, Overnight Pot Roast, Pan Roasted Chicken and more!

If you’re using fresh corn, a great tool I use for cutting it off the cob is Kerry’s Kernel Kutter Kit. I use the hand tool only when I’m just making a small batch recipe like this one. It actually comes with a drill bit attachment if you’re doing large batches for canning or freezing that make this chore a breeze!
