This old Cajun recipe features stewed corn and tomatoes, perfect as a side dish, especially with sausage, and pairs well with brown ales.

Ingredients

4-6 servings

A little sugar

A good bit of grease (about a handful)

Handful of chopped onion

Handful of chopped bell pepper

Eight ears of corn

Handful of chopped tomatoes

Salt & Pepper (to taste)

Directions

Clean the corn and cut lengthwise about a thumbnail (1/4 in) from the top and scrape down using the soft end of a knife (to keep the juices).

Mix all ingredients in a bowl excluding the grease. Salt & pepper to taste.

Pour mixture into a pot with hot grease in it at low heat.

Cover pot and cook for 45 minutes, and stir as you get up for more beers.

Serve.
