Crock Pot Pork Black Bean Corn Soup is a very easy summer crock pot soup recipe and is a great way to use up the leftover corn on the cob from your weekend barbeque.
I am always looking for ways to use my leftover corn on the cob whenever we have a barbecue.
I can't stand to waste the leftover corn on the cob so I have to come up with a recipe or two to use it up!
You know waste not, want not as my Nanny used to say!
This crock pot summer soup recipe is packed full of some of my favorite ingredients. I used ground pork that I browned in a skillet and drained very well.
Black beans have got to be my favorite canned bean and this soup recipe is packed full of the fiber beans have. I also used a couple of leftover corn on the cob I had from another recipe I made for the site.
As you may know, I live in Florida and Florida sweet corn is in season!
If your interested in the other fresh from Florida produce that is in season for the month of June you can check out my Fresh From Florida June Produce post from the other day.
Be sure and check out the recipes I included so you can use some of the fresh Florida produce that is in season.
Florida sweet corn is one of my favorite summer vegetables and is at the height of the summer season. As you know buying fresh fruits and vegetables when they are in season will give you the best bang for your grocery shopping buck.
I, of course, bought a whole bunch of Florida sweet corn and then had to figure out what I was going to do with it. I decided to make Instant Pot Corn On The Cob.
Even after we ate the sweet corn for dinner I had a bunch of corn leftover.
What To Do with Leftover Corn On The Cob?
When I have leftover corn on the cob I will cut the cooked corn kernels off the cob to use in another recipe.
Or I will pack a few zip lock bags full and tuck them away in the freezer for another day.
I haven't eaten any soup lately and I love homemade soup! I decided to make this Crock Pot Pork Black Bean Corn Soup recipe using some of my leftover Instant Pot Corn On The Cob, browned ground pork and canned black beans.
I lucked out because I had all the ingredients at home!
This is a great summer soup recipe that is easy to make and avoids heating up the house.
Plus you get to use up any leftover corn on the cob you happen to have hanging out in the refrigerator.
I also had a little leftover cooked white rice from the other day so I heated some up and added a couple of tablespoons to the bowl of Crock Pot Pork Black Bean Corn Soup I was enjoying for lunch the day I made this recipe.
The cooked white rice is optional but a tasty addition!

What do I do with the pork?

Hi Chris
Step #1 in the directions tells you to brown and drain the pork and add it to the crock pot. It is the first ingredient in.
