Barber Pole Corn

I found a recipe in a cookbook that belongs to my daughter. I haven't tried it and was wondering if any of you have. It's called Barber Pole Corn, and I'd like to know if it's any good.

Here's the recipe:

6 ears of corn shucked, and tassles removed
6 slices bacon
Peanut butter (as needed)

Spread peanut butter on corn. Starting at one end, wrap a piece of bacon around each ear, in a spiral (I guess this makes it resemble a barber pole). Wrap each in a square of heavy duty aluminum foil. Bake in a 300 deg oven for 1 hour...... or place over medium to hot coals. Serves 6.

If any one has tried this - or tries this, I'd love to read an opinion on it.

mmmmmm....bacon, it has to be good! another one to try out.

I like bacon on peanut butter sandwiches, and I'd probably like bacon and corn, but peanut butter and corn? I don't know.

Maybe I'll get brave and try this - I'll post an opinion.

I agree...2 of the 3 sound good, corn w/ bacon cooked together sounds great. But the peanut butter kinda throws a monkey wrench in that recipe.

Bacon can make almost anything taste better!

Its like a science experiment, I am thinking that the grease from the bacon disolves most of the peanut butter and will leave a little of the taste there giving it a smoked, nutty finish.........
