Cornbread is one of those things that is hard to get right. When it’s done right, it’s amazing. Otherwise, it’s relegated to the blah, meh, and not worth the calories category of food.
We’ve gone through many cornbread recipes that fit the latter.
And then, of course, My Mama comes to visit. And all of a sudden, we hit the cornbread jackpot. Amazing.
We served this up with a side of Embelly White Chili. I practically had to hide the remaining pieces from The Hubster. Otherwise, he would have devoured the entire pan.
