Before that I never considered it, now I love it. Last edited by KFWA; 03/07/15. have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings

I was never a fan - didn't even know sweet cornbread existed until my wife made it for me one night. I'll knock out a pan of sweet cornbread with real butter. have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings

Is there any truth to the claim that using cast will increase iron in the blood? There are no problems that cannot be resolved by the suitable application of high explosive.

The older brands, Griswald, Sydney and the like are getting harder to find in any shape at all, and at a price a sane person would pay. Lodge still makes good quality pieces. The Chinese stuff is very iffy, and I tend to shy away from it. European enameled cast iron, Staub, Emerald, Le Creuset, while excellent in every way, are VERY spendy. Ebay can be your friend for the older pieces. So can antique stores, roadside garage sales and word of mouth. I have very little, compared to some 'hoarders'. Sam......

Thanks Almost hate to tell you. It's just Martha White sweet yellow cornbread. just follow the directions. I pour it in 8" cast iron skillet, that's been sprayed with canola oil and preheated. maddog

I do a lot of large group cooking with a couple of other guys. They had the large ovens made and bought a bunch of big 20" ovens before one of the foundries went under. I have only a couple of regular ovens myself, a 16" and a 14". NRA Benefactor Member Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
