18 years ago

I have decided to grow Bloody Butcher dent corn this year just to see if roasted corn is something I will like. Anyone here have any experience with Dent corn??

Yes, I've grown several kinds. Take a look at the thread called "Corn for Meal and Grits," where I give some observations on it.

I grew Reid's yellow dent this fall for roasting ears. It had good pest resistance (important down here in FL) and a slightly more real corn taste than sweet corn (and not as sweet)but it still didn't have the full corn taste I've been looking for. Please post how the flavor is when you try Bloody Butcher.

While field corn is not to my liking for roasting ears, up through WWII Truckers Favorite was very popular for this purpose. It is a 90 day field corn available in both white and yellow.
