Corn casserole vs. souffle?

Options

I'm looking for a baked side with corn. Found a number of recipes for corn casserole and soufflé, with many variations. What's the difference between the two? Any tried and tested BGE-centric recipes that folks use regularly? Recipes that are easy on the butter would be great.


Thanks!

    SCALLOPED CORN

    2-16oz Can Cream Style Corn
    2-c. Whole Milk
    2-c. Saltine Cracker Crumbs
    4-eggs

    In a separate bowl mix all ingredients together, add salt and pepper to taste. Pour mixture into a greased 1-1/2 quart casserole. Bake 45 min at 350°. Center should be somewhat firm.
    I make this at Thanksgiving and Christmas and it is awesome good.

    Try a Maque Choux. Souffle is good but you won't get a lot of corn in it and it's a bear to do as a side. You can make it in advance but it will sink.

    We do one all the time and is super easy. Couldn't tell you the difference between a souffle but we call this a casserole. It's a can of cream corn, can of drained regular corn, box of jiffy corn bread mix. 1 egg and a stick of butter........ Bake til done about 45 minutes at 350 in stone baking dish. O wait you said easy in the butter, sorry this is not it but dang is it good.

    @GaryLange, LS, and @Brisket_Fanatic - sorry , I just realized that I had not responded.

    I ended up adapting a recipe from Saveur, but added jalapenos, and subbed Jiffy mix for cornmeal. It ended up quite tasty, and SWMBO said we should drop the mashed potatoes from the T-day menu and just make this instead.

    Thanks for the suggestions!
