The biggest event in college basketball is here, the NCAA’s March Madness tournament. That means brackets, upsets, and everything else that comes along with the Big Dance. Like any other major sporting event, there are viewing parties and, of course, snacks. This is where Trisha Yearwood’s Slow-Cooker Corn Dip comes in. 

No matter the sporting event, whether it’s March Madness or a football party menu, the Grammy winner’s recipe is perfect for any game day get-together. Additionally, it’s so easy to make, according to reviewers, that the recipe might stick around well after March Madness ends. 

Trisha Yearwood’s Slow-Cooker Corn Dip has a 3-hour cook time

Featured on the “Game Day with the Nashville Predators” episode of her Food Network show, Trisha Southern’s Kitchen, Yearwood’s Slow-Cooker Corn Dip requires only 15 minutes of prep work. 

However, it is, after all, a slow cooker recipe. Which, as the name suggests, means it’s not ready in mere minutes. Try three hours. Drummond cooks the dip slowly over the course of 120 minutes before serving. 

Prepare it three hours in advance and serve just before tip-off. Another option is to make other dishes on Yearwood’s game day menu such as Loaded Curly Fry Nachos, Philly Cheesesteak Pull-Apart Bread, Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookie Bars, and Cherry Citrus Smash.

How to make Trisha Yearwood’s Slow-Cooker Corn Dip

There’s not much more to making Yearwood’s Slow-Cooker Corn Dip than gathering all the ingredients together and leaving the slow cooker to do its thing. 

Per Yearwood’s recipe instructions, she puts thawed frozen corn in a slow cooker. Along with it goes cubed cream cheese, jarred pimientos (without the liquid), salt, chopped garlic, and chili powder. 

Yearwood also tosses in chopped and seeded jalapeños. “Jalapeños will still have heat but deseeding just takes the really high heat out,” she explained on Trisha’s Southern Kitchen. 

After cooking it on low for an hour Yearwood opens the lid and stirs everything together. Then she puts the lid back on and leaves the dip to cook for another two hours. 

When the three hours are up, Yearwood garnishes her Slow-Cooker Corn Dip with chopped fresh parsley and serves it with a side of tortilla chips. 

Reviewers love Yearwood’s dip for all types of get-togethers

At the time of writing Yearwood’s Slow-Cooker Corn Dip is a 4.5-star Food Network recipe. While some reviewers wish it had a little more heat, the majority love the dip’s versatility. 

One reviewer, who included it on their Super Bowl menu, called it a hit. Another dubbed it a crowd-pleaser, saying “everyone loved this dip!” Another, who served it at a summer party said they followed the recipe using what they already had and the dip “disappeared in a flash.” 

One praised the dish’s simplicity noting they made it on “lazy Sunday” before calling it “so perfect when you need to throw something together.” Others described Yearwood’s Slow-Cooker Corn Dip as “simple, easy, and delicious” and “so chip-friendly.”
