Summer means smokers!

God love her, but Ann cannot cook either cornbread or dressing (for Thanksgiving) to save her life.

Oh! I also added a small can of green chiles ~ with about 1/2 liquid (just opened can and then smushed it down and dumped out some liquid).

You can also substitute white or blue corn meal and adding about a cup of cheese is good too.

I'm a purist, I like cornbread in my cornbread and that's about it. Never been a big fan of Mexican cornbread or with pieces of corn or anything except butter with my cornbread.

What exactly did you do, Sara? I know you added chiles... did you just do the basic recipe?  Or go for the "Recipe variation"?  Or the blue corn meal substitution? That cornbread was perfect (I didn't even realize chilis were in it).

[Pearl@32]

Basic recipe off the back of the bag!!!!

I just don't know if unintentionally letting the ingredients sit for a minute before I mixed did anything or not.

Original recipe is not as sweet so if you like really sweet cornbread, use more sugar.

I like yellow gunny bears in my cornbread.

Preach it, brother .

Joy makes excellent cornbread .

Then again , nearly anything she cooks is excellent .

It's no lie when I say I married above my pay-grade .

I do have to qualify though - being from beyond the wall food up here is probably different

Like chilli for example - I've never had it without beans and we tend to mix in several kinds all at once ....
