Happy Thanksgiving

Ah corn bread. On the farm it often had “cracklings” in it and was made from scratch. Today the wife likes it sweet and it’s from a box. Still, I do love corn bread.

My wife, being English though THOROUGHLY immersed and appreciative of American culture has introduced me to a wonderful culinary vice; Corn bread & custard!

Especially if the corn bread is at least day-old. YUUUH-----UM!

I have to warn you I have won a couple of cast iron cookoffs at Ft Lamotte with my cheezy bacon jalapeno cornbread recipe in my dutch oven.....just sayin'

Happy Thanksgiving!


We tried smoking a turkey the first year and it turned out delicious but looked like heck...

Ours is *in the pipe* as I type.

The beauty of corn bread is that while it is easy enough to make, it can provide a complex, complimentary side to anything. Make it sweet, make it savory, it can have hints of game being served; fish, fowl or furred and transports very well.

Personally, I like my cornbread with jalapenos and cheese in a greased cast iron skillet that's about 100 years old..................
