Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Remember that the bacon is already salty, so adjust accordingly.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce during the last few minutes of cooking.
If you prefer a sweeter flavor profile, add 1-2 teaspoons of maple syrup or brown sugar along with the corn.
Fresh corn kernels cut straight from the cob can also be used! Increase the cooking time slightly.
Don't discard the bacon drippings! They are essential to the overall flavor of the dish. The drippings carry so much flavor.
