Lone Star Dutch Oven Society

Sweet cornbread? Ewww, yuck! My cornbread is cornmeal, egg, buttermilk, salt, baking soda and baking powder. That's it. Bake it in a couple tablespoons bacon fat that melted in the cast iron skillet while the oven was heating up, and it has a lovely crust all around and a flaky, almost custardy texture requiring nothing but butter and beans/pot likker.

Sweet cornbread is dessert.
