Pinto beans with chow chow, oh yes, laced with corn and jalapeños, definitely, in a glass of sweet milk, all day long, with mayonnaise oh no.

How do you fry your cornbread?

Where do y'all keep your cornbread recipes? In your purse? Where I come from men cook the meat and women make the cakes.
I bake mine in hundred year old cast iron skillets, Lodge or Griswold. Key is to put a tablespoon or so of bacon grease in the pan in the oven while preheating. Then add the cold batter to the hot grease. The ensuing sizzle is good for the soul. Bake on 425 until as crispy as you like it.
Cain' afford no real woman. Alls I kin afford is cornmeal & water.
I doubt I've ever baked any cornbread that wasn't destined for the dressing pan at Thanksgiving.
I have a cornbread twist that I do with chili. I'll add a can of sweet corn to the mix, put a few inches of chili in a large cast iron skillet, pour the cornbread mix over it and into the oven at 375 for however long it needs to cook. It's ridiculous with the chili fused into the bottom of it!
I am definitely going to try this next time I make Texas brisket chili.
The real question is why would anyone voluntarily eat cornbread?
I love fried cornbread and a glass of milk sometimes I’ll pour a little honey on it!
