Ingredients

0.5 cup unsalted sweet cream butter
8 ears fresh corn, husked, or more to taste
1 pinch salt
0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Prepare all of your ingredients.
Melt butter in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Using a knife, carefully slice the kernels off the corn cobs and add them to the skillet. Scrape the corn cobs to extract the corn "milk" and any remaining kernels, adding them to the pan. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preference.
Cook until the corn is heated through and tender, approximately 10 minutes.
