Cornbread

[gwpercle]

I'm going to agree with your wife ... I like Jiffy too .

Yesterday I baked a batch of jiffy cornbread , 5 boxes ... and used it as the base for two big pans of Cornbread Dressing ... one for Thanksgiving and the other for Christmas ... they are in the freezer just waiting to be warmed up !
To me the dressing taste best when made with the Jiffy Mix.

I've had all types of cornbread, but seriously... Jiffy remains the best. And always will be.

The only issue I have with Jiffy, is that it is literally loaded with trans fats which are not healthy for you to eat. There are Jiffy clone recipes with none of the nasty stuff in them.

I like a sweet corncake style cornbread with BBQ but I won't make Jiffy.

Now I have several recipes to try. Grandma's was not cake and was not very sweet but hot out of the oven, pad of home made butter, honey from her bees or home made molasses from the sugar cane was better than a new girlfriend.

The only proper way to eat cornbread is with butter and molasses.

This man cornbreads.

Steen's pure cane syrup, Honey, or even Log Cabin syrup over a big slab swimming in butter is just as good in my book.

Think I'll go make a pan now. Cornbread and cold milk, the staff of life.

Dad was born in 1920, he thought everyone had cornbread and milk for supper till he joined the Army in 1941.

Now I've gone and slobbered on the keyboard.

Good cold milk from the spring house in a glass filled with cornbread couldn't be beat growing up as a bed time snack at grandma's house.

I had a craving for some White Boy Soul Food awful bad, so I got one of them very affordable and DELICIOUS rotisserie chickens from Walmart, thawed out some Thanksgiving leftover collards, warmed up a can of Luck's fried apples, and I made some devilishly good cornbread, put it all on the plate, sliced open that fresh hot cornbread and buttered it, then drowned it in pot likker from the collards and poured me a glass of buttermilk. OH HAIL YEAH!!!

Tried a new trick with the cornbread, haven't been able to get any good Cajun cracklins here so I used half a bag of Paqui Haunted Ghost Pepper Tortilla Chips, busted them up real good and tossed 'em in the batter. Very tasty! Not anywhere near brutally hot like eating a chip right from the bag, but quite good!

This is the same recipe I always use, posted in reply #12 in this thread.

Pics are batter freshly poured in a 450F hot skillet with bacon grease and it all floats up around the sides and comes out on top of the batter, bringing with it the bits of bacon left in the pan.. And also the bag of chips that I get from any of the Sheetz stations..
