I got around to grinding some fresh shelled corn last night. It is a bit gritty, but the taste is like steak, to burger. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/hTVuWwI.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/uUdBWq8.jpg)

I confess to just using Jiffy Mix. I'm perfectly happy with it, but I'm going to get some of that Betty Crocker mix.

I'm partial to Famous Dave's corngread mix but add a little honey to it. I have some of that in the cupboard but I haven't tried it yet. I need to put buttermilk on my shopping list....thanks for reminding me.

I've used my Aunt Betty's recipe for 25 years & I've never tasted any better & I've ate a lot of corn bread, especially in Texas! Her recipe is by far the best. The secret is to go to your local Walmart or other store that has Betty Crocker corn bread & just follow the recipe, no, I'm not kidding! It's great & easy to make, I've fed it to a lot of out of town hunting buddies & they all love it. Give it a try.
Dick Is tbat a mix (likeJiffy) or a recipe using betty Crocker corn *meal*?

Rocky, my old hunting buddy Myron (88 yrs old) from Centerville, & Ellis from near Antelope Island got hooked on that Betty Crocker corn bread when I would have them up here hunting with me & they have never stopped buying it. You'll be surprised.

Found this recipe for corn bread and Okra when I was trying to figure out what to do with a bumper crop of Okra and running out of recipes. https://www.melissassouthernstylekitchen.com/okra-cornbread/ Added Jalapenos and cheddar cheese to one batch and it was pretty good. I like to use the Bobs Red Mill Corn flower either the blue or the yellow. I also added some spelt flower to the flour portion for more flavor. This and some Venison Chili hits the spot on a cold day.

There is this recipe ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/OIMV368.jpg) from this book ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/sS6FiNO.jpg) Might try that with the black bean soup tonight. Similar to the other I posted above, but less salt and sugar.

My grandmother had many meals where she ate nothing but cornbread and buttermilk. I love it too, and prefer it over any other kind of bread.
As far as sorghum goes, I like it on a biscuit. I prefer my cornbread straight, no butter, no nothing on it.

Well then I'd say your grandmother's a pretty smart ol gal. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/QdaZrt8l.jpg) I like to chunk it up in a bowl and pour Buttermilk over it like breakfast cereal but I'll eat it with some good bean soup too.

The Irish like buttermilk on their oatmeal, but it's probably "from the churn" and not the cultured buttermilk we get. I grew up eating a lot of cornbread and hot milk breakfasts, broken up in a bowl. Never tried it with buttermilk until a few years ago, and used cold milk that time. I liked it. I suspect you have to like both parts to like them together, of course.
Gonna search for that Betty mix today.
