Shuck the corn, be sure to remove all the silk. Break the ears in half (if needed so they fit snugly in your Crockpot). Place corn in the slow cooker.
Pour in milk and water.
Scatter butter chunks over the top. Sprinkle with sugar, salt, and pepper.
Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2 hours, until corn is tender and infused with buttery, creamy goodness.

Notes
Remove the corn carefully (it’ll be tender!), roll it in the buttery milk bath if you want extra flavor, and serve hot. A little sprinkle of parmesan or fresh herbs never hurts either!
