Yes this is a very old fashion way of making cornbread with that nice old fashion flavor that comes from pouring the batter into the hot lard (bacon grease in our case). I made as written and liked that this recipe called for an 8-inch cast iron skillet. This is not an overly sweet bread and yes it was perfectly right at the 15 minute mark. Thanks for the post.

This is a wonderful recipe. I used an 8-inch cast iron skillet, and that was the perfect size. I soured the milk with lemon juice, mixed wet ingredients into drys leaving a few lumps. Batter was pretty thin. I cooked the batter on the stovetop for 2 minutes before moving the skillet to the oven. It was done in 15 minutes. After resting a few minutes, the bread tipped out of the pan with a nice brown crust. Well risen, tender crumb, and a small enough batch so that single me won't be wondering what to do with it all. My search for a good cornbread recipe is over. Now, to play with it. Green chiles and cheese, or cheese and cut-up hot dogs, or whole corn and... Thanks so much for posting this!
