Rudy's Most Decadent Side Dish

I live right here in the heart of Rudy Land, and never thought to try to find their cream corn recipe...until last weekend. I'm sure this is old news to lots of folks, but it is wonderful, regardless. Key ingredient is cream cheese. Long recipe short...

2 pounds frozen corn
1 block of cream cheese (cubed)
1 TBS. sugar
1/2 stick butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste

Do it on the stove, in a crock pot, whatever. Just do it. Like eating candy. Prepping this pot for a Chuckeye dinner in a few minutes.

    Never much liked creamed corn. Then again, I've never had any that didn't come out of a can. That looks like it has possibilities.

    But, umm, who's Rudy? :blink:

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Just north of San Antonio, at the edge of the Texas Hill Country, sits the small community of Leon Springs. Founded in the 1800s by Max Aue, Leon Spring´s cityscape changed when Max´s son, Rudolph, opened a one-stop gas station, garage, and grocery store.

    Bar-B-Q was added to the operation in 1989, and Rudy´s "Country Store" and Bar-B-Q has been serving up tasty food ever since. The same original recipes that built Rudy´s Leon Springs´ reputation are now available throughout the Southwest.

    Our pits are 100% wood fired with oak, a slower burning wood than the mesquite used by others. Along with time and oak, we cook with a dry spice that ensures each plate of Rudy´s Bar-B-Q is perfectly ready for you. Apply some of our famous "Sause" and dinner is served.

    Hold on pardner, you forgot one thing in that recipe.... I once asked the late "Doc" Holiday about his corn recipe and he just laughed and said the secret was all the love that went into it. He complimented me on my cookin' site, then produced a free sample of smoked turkey, thus ending the discussion.

    My verison and write-up can be found here..Cream Corn

    Try pureeing some of the corn as it makes for a great thickener.
    Happy Trails

    Thanks! I spent some time in SA, uh, a few years ago (longggg before '89). But they didn't let me off base very much. :lol:

    Rudy's is the place were I fell in love with BBQ. I use to travel to Austin and would drive down to SA just to eat there. I still order their rub. Food on wax paper, loaves of bread. Beer in a troth and you sit at picnic tables. Oh soooooo good! They have a great Turkey rub too.

    Smokin'Stogies in Exton, Pa with my wife and our four dogs; Sully and Boo the Newfoundlands, Murphy the Irish Setter and Alli the Beagle/Lab mix. 

    Eggers Prayer-

    Our egg, which art in sizes, hallowed be thy smoke, thy will be grilled, at home as it is at eggfest. Give us this clay our daily brisket and forgive us our rubs, as we forgive those who gas grill against us, and lead us not to flashback but deliver us from overnighters. For thine is the grill, the smoke, the egg. Let's eat!

    I miss Rudy's!!! Used to frequent the one out towards Boerne but just ordered some of their rubs. I noticed south of OKC that there are signs for Rudy's with a very similar font but haven't had the chance to see if it's the same group.

    This recipe looks great. I do not want to start a fight, but I favor the one from thirdeye, because of the comment about putting some of the corn in the blender.

    I most recipes I have seen, creamed corn is made by cutting fresh corn, off the cob, with a special cutter that also slits open most of the kernels and allows the liquid to come out when cooked.

    I have had creamed corn that was nothing more than corn and butter.

    This recipe seems to kick that up a notch.

    Let me be quick to say that I have never heard of Rudy's before, so I do not know how it was actually made. The idea of blending some of the corn just feels right based on my history with other recipes.
