An homage to her Aunt T, This Ain't No Yankee Cornbread was contributed by Tamie Cook, culinary director of Alton Brown's Good Eats program on the Food Network.
How to Make It
Step 1
Place 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in a 6 1/2-inch Lodge cast iron skillet; place skillet in the oven while it preheats to 425°.
Step 2
Whisk together the cornmeal, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Whisk together the egg, buttermilk, and remaining 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in a medium bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the buttermilk mixture and stir just until combined. (The mixture should pour like pancake batter; if not, add a little more buttermilk.)
Step 3
Pour the batter into the hot skillet. Bake until the crust is dark golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve hot, no chaser.
