I have to make corn bread for 50 people...

[SarahFair]

Ahh! This saturday we are having my sons bday here at the house.
IDK how but the RSVP im coming got up to about 50 people.

Its ok cause I love every single one

Well my dad is making brunswick stew and BBQ and Ive picked up some baked beans and corn to cook..

But now I need a very very moist and very very good Cornbread recipe...

Anyone have one

Buttermilk Cornbread

2C buttermilk cornmeal (I use Martha White Self-Rising Buttermilk cornmeal)
1C self rising flour (I used Martha White Southern Biscuit Self-Rising flour)
not quite a full quart of buttermilk (consistency s/b about that of pancake batter)
vegetable oil (I use canola)
large cast iron skillet

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Pour in about 1/8" vegetable oil in skillet and put in the oven to heat while mixing the cornmeal, flour and buttermilk in a large bowl. Add buttermilk until the batter is the consistency of pancake batter. When oil in skillet is hot (or oven has preheated), remove skillet and pour hot oil into the batter mixture. Mix well. Pour batter into skillet and bake until top is golden brown and center is done. *I usually set my timer for 30-35 minutes and it is done. Turn onto cooling rack. Eat hot or cold.

This is a GREAT recipe! It isn't a sweet cornbread (guess you could add a tad of sugar though) It just has a nice old fashioned cornbread taste and texture! Good luck with your party!

someone should create a poll --

sweet cornbread or old fashioned/savory cornbread which do you prefer

This is how I make mine and it's really good and fluffy

2 cups corn meal
1 cup flour self rising
2 eggs (makes it's moist)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar (or less if you don't want it sweet)
1 tablespoon Clabber girl
Heat oil up in the cast iron skillet until hot! Maybe about 1/8 cup into your skillet or make sure the bottom is covered (you'll want to do this before you add the milk, so that you don't get it too runny)
Pour in Milk until it the consistency of pancake batter ( I have never tried it with buttermilk, but I guess you could use it if you prefer.) Not sure how it will turn out.

If you get it too thin, you can always add a little more corn meal.

Always use a cast iron skillet, it makes the edges golden and crispy!
