Slow Cooker Corn Chowder PT500M https://img2.recipesrun.com/201907/2019/0724/8d/e/713153/300x200x90.jpg The easiest crockpot soup ever! Fresh corn kernels, bacon, potato, stock, garlic, thyme. Topped with crisp bacon bits and chives. THE BEST. This is legit my favorite year-long soup. Perfect for those super hot summer days where you’re out by the beach all day, coming home to this hearty fresh corn soup where you can get 8 ears of corn for just a $1 at your local grocery store. An added bonus is that you don’t even have to turn on the stovetop or oven (especially if you have the nifty saute function in your slow cooker!), keeping the house nice and cool. Then, there are the Chiberia days – you know, the -50 windchill winter Chicago nights where nothing in the world could beat this cozy soup. And if fresh corn on the cob is not readily available, frozen corn kernels will work just fine. I just don’t recommend skimping on that bacon though. The bacon slices give off so much goodness, cooking low and slow for 8 hours. And the extra crisp bacon bit toppings don’t hurt either! 8 servings Ingredients: 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives 1 cup heavy cream Freshly ground black pepper 4 sprigs fresh thyme 1 onion, diced 3 cloves garlic, minced 5 - 6 cups yellow corn, kernels removed 4 slices bacon, diced 2 slices bacon 1 russet potato, peeled and diced 6 cups chicken stock Kosher salt
