My Mimi's Cornbread
This is the same recipe my grandmother, we call her Mimi, taught me how to make, right down to heating up the oil in the skillet. I love the way the batter sizzles when you pour it into the skillet. For a transplanted Southerner living up North, I'm now teaching my own kids how to make real cornbread!

True Southern Cornbread
My Grandmother was Southern and I grew up on her cornbread and home canned green beans. Her recipe is simialr to this one but she used baking soda instead of baking powder and yes she used an egg. She probably used lard in my young years but I use oil and heat it in the skillet to make a good crust. I have even taken to using melted butter in the skillet and poring it in the batter. Butter makes a great tasting batter and leaves a butter taste not an oil taste.

Make cornbread cheaper
Just buy a box of Jiffy Corngread mix, it has all the dry ingredients. Following th mixing off the box. After that, set the oven on 350 and get out the 6 inch cast iron pan. Put a slab of unsalted butter in the pant and return to oven to melt. After it melts remove pan and pour into cornbread mixture. Then return the mixture to pan to cook for about 20 minutes or golden brown. Prefect everytime!

Almost Right
My family's 4th generation recipe from North Carolina by way of Arkansas uses no egg and requires buttermilk. The key, though, is bacon drippings in the batter and to use bacon drippings in the pan. Preheat the cast iron skillet in the oven with the drippings. Put in the batter and bake.

My Grandma's Cornbread!
Really? Too OILY?!!! My grandmother taught me to make this cornbread exactly (except we also use shortening instead of oil) years and years ago. Hot out of the oven with a slab of butter (I know, I know) . . . mmmmmmmmm goooooooooood! Never had the urge to try anything different. Can't beat perfection.

My Dad's Cornbread
My father was from the mountains of North Carolina. We grew up eating his incredible cornbread and this is almost his recipe. Use a cast iron skillet, yellow cornmeal and Crisco instead of canola oil. Melt crisco in the skillet before adding to the prepared batter. Add batter to hot skillet to begin a good crust. Bacon bits and diced green onion add flavor and moistness. As another reviewer stated, DO NOT add sugar, the is cornbread not corncake.

Real Cornbread
This recipe is great for someone on a gluten free diet. It tastes far superior to gluten free recipes I have tried.

I tried this recipe this weekend. Will NEVER make this one again. WAY too much oily taste. It was also rather tasteless, other than the oil taste.
