Frozen Corn on the Cob in Shrimp/Misc Boil

I noticed one of the steps in the stalekracker method is to add the frozen corns after the 1 minute boil to help cool the pot down for the soak. How well does that corn actually cook soaking in 150* water for 20 minutes?

Cooks completely fine in that amount of time. And the water is hotter than that when it gets put in.

Thanks. Since I have yalls attention, does the 1 minute boil-then-soak method still work on frozen shrimp when the fresh are out of season?

I highly recommend you soak frozen shrimp in cool water until defrosted. Should only take 20-30 minutes.

Works fine, just did it with crawfish. Threw frozen corn in when I cut the fire and it soaked for about 30 minutes with the crawfish.

I didn’t like or eat the frozen corn. I don’t like the texture. Fresh corn in a boil is outstanding.

Crawfish boil corn is always overcooked for me. Tasty, but overcooked.

Frozen corn is already cooked. All you are doing is thawing it. You can do the same thing in cold water and it would be fine.

Brussel sprouts? Never tried that, but looks interesting.

Yes, my wife wanted me to chunk them in there. They turned out pretty damn good. Don't cut the butt off them and they will stay together.

I bought fresh corn and stuck them in the freezer for about 45 minutes prior to adding them to cool the pot. Weren't mushy at all. I think all the frozen corn you buy at the store has been parboiled previously and gets mushy.

How long did the brussel sprouts cook?
Posted on 3/31/24 at 3:00 pm to SpotCheckBilly
20 minutes maybe? Not exactly sure. I added them not long after I dropped the potatoes. Cooked about the same amount of time

It’s about perfect. That’s how I do it every time.
