Creamed Corn with Smoked Sausage

Creamed Corn is of course a southern staple during the summer. It’s so sweet and rich and goes so well with fried chicken and bbq. Adding chunks of smoked sausage makes it taste even more delicious. If that’s possible.

Type Of Smoked Sausage To Use

You can use any type of smoked sausage for this recipe. I like to use Polska Kielbasa or Andouille.

Recipe Tip

When making Creamed Corn, be sure to really scrape the corn cobs well with the back of a knife or the side of a spoon to get every bit of pulp and milk. Yes, it’s a little bit labor intensive to scrape each and every cob well, but your effort will be well rewarded.

And don’t skimp on the cream. This is one side dish that’s meant to be rich and creamy!
