I love mashed potatoes, any way, any time. Grilled on cedar planks, made with roasted garlic, packed with Boursin cheese, it doesn’t matter how they’re made, I’ll eat them. Adding sweet corn takes potatoes to a new special happy place. That great sweet corn pop with the creaminess of the potatoes makes for the perfect combination. These corn mashed potatoes made for the absolutely best side dish.

For a little twist on these corn mashed potatoes, use corn on the cob (you’ll need 3-4 cobs depending on the size), roasting the corn first on a grill or under the broiler. Once charred, remove the cobs from the oven and let cool. Then scrape off the kernels and use them in the potatoes.

I use a knife or a peeler to get the kernels off my fresh corn. It makes my life easier when I have a bunch of corn to do!

Mashed potatoes are also great made in a crockpot. Try some slow-cooker Tennessee-style mashed potatoes.
