8 ears corn, husked
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
salt & freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons bacon grease

In a large bowl, cut the tip off cob. Cut the kernels from cob with a small paring knife. Using the back of the blade, scrape against the cob to press out the milky liquid.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat bacon grease. Add corn mixture and turn heat down to medium-low, stirring until it becomes creamy, about 30 minutes.
