  1. This is one we absolutely enjoyed. I did use buttermilk, as I thought it would add some flavor. Nonetheless, the flavor was great. Truly 1 delicious meal. Wouldn't change a thing. Made for 1-2-3 hits.
     
  2. True Southern cornbread. Here's where mightyro and I differ---I use yellow stone-grounded cornmeal from a mill not far from my home--still in operation! The pork rind added a down-home dimension; I just left the drippings in the cast iron skillet and poured the batter right over the top; then sprinkled with the crumbled cracklins...cholestrol, be da*n--delicious!
     
  3. Come on!!! this was the wroth creaklin' bread I ever made and put in my mouth. 1st you call for 1 1/2 cups of cornmeal and also 1 cup of flour with ONLY 1 cup of milk, (this must have been a typo), because It only came out doughy; which I had to add more milk to make it consistency to be smooth.<br/>I have to give it to you it came out to be a pretty golden brown; but the taste was more of a bread taste of flour not of the corn bread taste.<br/>I am from the Deep South of Georgia, and this would not have cut it where I come from.

I am a retired school teacher and live in Hemingway, South Carolina, which is about 40 miles from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I taught Family and Consumer Sciences(formerly,Home Economics). I now work at the Boys &amp; Girls Club of America here in my hometown. I also am a substitute teacher. Once a teacher, always a teacher. <BR><BR>I enjoy cooking, especially for friends and family. I even prepare meals for my co-workers and take to work. They really enjoy them. Some foods I prepare, they have never had. My biggest meal of the year is at Christmas. Since I am not married and no children, my mother (since my father passed in 2003) and brother and his family comes for Christmas dinner. He has 8 children (whom are all grown up) and 7 grandchildren. So, I begin preparing,making the menu, buying items for dinner the day after Thanksgiving. <BR><BR><BR><IMG
