I like corn on the grill but I did not want to heat it up for one ear.
Instead, I cut the kernels off and cooked them in a dry frying pan.
Just a small coated pan, they did get a little browned though not as
good as the grill.

After it was cooked I added butter and salt. While not as good as off
the grill, it was pretty good. The rest of the meal was leftovers
reheated.

If I'm having corn, fried is always my first choice. My dad could slice
corn off the cob like a pro with nary a wayward kernel shooting across
the countertop. Then he would scrape the cob to get the 'milk' out and
into the frying pan with the kernels.

hmm, try microwaving in the husk for 3-4 minutes
first and then fry.

Was it a cast iron skillet? I'd have used a cast iron pan and added
butter to it to fry the corn kernels.

It was a coated pan. I wanted to try getting a little color, similar to
when it is grilled so did it dry at first, then added butter. May have
worked better in cast iron though.

Ed, it's hard to beat cast iron. You can get it a lot hotter than
teflon and it will hold the heat long as you need it. But I bet your
fried corn would have been plenty good enough for me. A little salt
and a little pepper, and little butter, and any way it's cooked, it
will be good, if the corn was decent in the first place. Sometimes I
got corn that wasn't very good. Even feed corn can be good if you
pick it very early.

The grilling season, and bicycling season should be starting soon
down there in florida. I'm hoping you get out of the goat barn and
make the most of it! Not long now, and the rest of us will be
freeezzing! You'll be wearing T shirts and we will need arctic parkas.

Hang in there buddy.

Yes, it is starting to get a bit cooler. I did not mind going out when
it was hot but I did not spend a lot of time outside. Took a brief walk
this evening though and it was very pleasant. Winter will be great
though.
