Steps:
- 1. Husk the corn and remove silks; cut the kernels from the cob. Scrape cob well to remove all the pulp and milk; there should be at least 3 cups.
- 2. Cook bacon slowly until crisp in a skillet; remove and drain on paper towel.
- 3. Stir corn into hot bacon fat, then add water, salt, and sugar. Stir and cook 5 minutes, uncovered.
- 4. Stir milk gradually into flour; keep smooth. Add this to the corn and cook, stirring constantly for a few minutes or until thickened. Mix in pepper and butter.
- 5. Serve hot, garnished with the crumbled bacon.
