corn in crock pot

Why is this recipe even here?  Blame the advertisements and the idiots.  Why the first 3 pages of google searches are full of unrelated and unwanted videos is beyond me.  And why the idiots think you need to dirty another pot to ‘start’ the recipe is just, well, stupid.

Maybe we’ll try to refine the search.  Try “frozen corn slow cooker -creamed -cob”.  Now we get chowders and cheesy on the first 3 pages.

UNCLE.  I’ll add my own.

corn in the slow cooker
Ingredients
  1. bag corn
  2. water - enough to get it a tad wet
  3. butter - gobs and gobs of it
  4. sugar - to taste
Instructions
  1. put it all in the crockpot on low heat.
  2. stir often. every hour or even better every 1/2 hour
  3. cook for 4 hours in low.
  4. when it's to the desired tenderness turn it down to keep warm until ready to serve.
Notes
  1. I try to use a minimum of water. Use more butter.

quart jar calculations : 8 cups = 1 quart; 7 cups to allow for head room

5 cups (~2.5 lbs) peaches
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup clear jel (1.5 lbs. (approx. 2.5 cups, 0.6 lbs/cup)
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp nutmeg

An average of 17-1/2 pounds is needed per canner load of 7 quarts
A bushel weighs 48 pounds and yields 16 to 24 quarts – an average of 2-1/2 pounds per quart.

2.5 lbs/quart
20 lbs / 2.5 = 8 quarts

First try 2021-08-08. We’ll target 7 quarts for canning & 1 quart for a fresh tester pie.
8*.5 = 4 cups brown
8*.25=2cups white
8*3/4=6 cups water
8*.25=2cups clear jel
8*.25tsp=2 tsp nutmeg
8*1=8 tsp lemon juice
