Ingredients for “Almost Famous” Corn Pudding

  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • Unsalted butter, for the Dutch oven

Directions for “Almost Famous” Corn Pudding

  1. Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.
  2. Whisk together the creamed corn, cornbread mix, eggs, corn kernels, sour cream and scallions in a large bowl. Melt the butter and mascarpone in a small saucepot over low heat, stirring occasionally. (Be careful not to simmer or the mixture will separate.) Pour the melted butter and mascarpone into the large bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Season with salt and pepper and mix well to combine.
  3. Butter a large Dutch oven and pour the mixture in. Place over indirect heat, cover the grill and bake at 325 to 375 degrees F until the mixture is set and golden brown on top, about 1 hour. Take off the grill and serve!
  4. (Alternatively, you can bake the corn pudding in a 350 degrees F oven for 1 hour.)

  • Side Dish – A side dish, sometimes referred to as a side order, side item, or simply a side, is a food item that accompanies the entrée or main course at a meal.
  • Grilling – Grilling is a form of cooking that involves dry heat applied to the surface of food, commonly from above, below or from the side. Grilling usually involves a significant amount of direct, radiant heat, and tends to be used for cooking meat and vegetables quickly. Food to be grilled is cooked on a grill (an open wire grid such as a gridiron with a heat source above or below), using a cast iron/frying pan, or a grill pan (similar to a frying pan, but with raised ridges to mimic the wires of an open grill).Heat transfer to the food when using a grill is primarily through thermal radiation. Heat transfer when using a grill pan or griddle is by direct conduction. In the United States, when the heat source for grilling comes from above, grilling is called broiling. In this case, the pan that holds the food is called a broiler pan, and heat transfer is through thermal radiation.Direct heat grilling can expose food to temperatures often in excess of 260 °C (500 °F). Grilled meat acquires a distinctive roast aroma and flavor from a chemical process called the Maillard reaction. The Maillard reaction only occurs when foods reach temperatures in excess of 155 °C (310 °F).Studies have shown that cooking beef, pork, poultry, and fish at high temperatures can lead to the formation of heterocyclic amines, benzopyrenes, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which are carcinogens.Marination may reduce the formation of these compounds. Grilling is often presented as a healthy alternative to cooking with oils, although the fat and juices lost by grilling can contribute to drier food.
