    Slow Cooker Roasted Corn and Poblano Dip with Bacon in black slow cookerDoes anyone else who works from home, cares for kids at home or is otherwise at home all day ever have the sudden realization when it's almost time for bed that they forgot to take a shower that day? No? Ummmm..... okay. Me either. Except I did. But I just got so busy!! The kids and I made cupcakes, I put together a new dinner recipe AND I made this dip. And I got totally distracted by taking little scoops of this Roasted Corn and Poblano Dip and so I can't be blamed! This dip is totally distracting in such a good way. Even my three year old was sneaking bites while I was trying to take a few photos.

    Slow Cooker Roasted Corn and Poblano Dip with Bacon in slow cookerSo what makes this dip so good? I think it's the freshness! Use freshly shucked corn on the cob and a nice crisp poblano pepper and you won't be sorry! Oh, and the bacon. Seriously...what's not good with bacon?!

    Slow Cooker Roasted Corn and Poblano Dip with Bacon in slow cookerYes, I'm adding an extra step here and I will say I think it's a must! You need to grill or otherwise roast your corn and pepper for this dip. You can use your outdoor grill, grill pan on your stove or even your grilling machine like the one I have to get that nice roasted flavor. It's really simple, I promise!

    Four ears of roasted corn and poblano pepper on grillHow long it takes will depend on the grill you are using. Outside on a super hot grill it will just take a couple of minutes on each side... mine took more like 15 minutes. Just brush the corn and pepper with a little olive oil and put them right on a preheated grill that's nice and hot. I had mine turned up to 450 degrees. Keep an eye on it and roast the corn until it's nice and golden and roast the pepper until the skin is dark and blistered.

    Notice the hand sneaking in for a chip!

    Let the pepper steam in a ziploc bag for 10 minutes or so when it's done and the skin will peel right off. Then you can dice it right up and add it to the crock along with the corn that you have cut off the cob. Let it all melt together with the cheeses and crumbled bacon and watch the dip disappear!!

    • Brush corn and pepper lightly with olive oil
    • Preheat grill (to around 450 degrees for indoor grill) and place corn and pepper on grill

    • Remove and let the corn cool and place the pepper in a ziploc bag and seal
    • In the meantime place the bacon on a microwave safe plate and cook on high for 2 minutes or until crispy but not burnt. Remove to paper towels and let cool.
