Bought my first cast iron skillet 48 years ago. Used it this morning for breakfast. Can’t beat ‘em.

Lyle fixed my amp about 12 years ago. I've always wanted to hang with coffee and amps, then beer and pizza. Now I want to cook with him. Amazing.

While living in West Memphis about 30 years ago, someone's grandma made us cornbread for dinner. I have never since met it's equal. Man I miss southern cooking!

I make southern corn bread every time we have red beans and rice, which is quite often. I add jalapenos and scallions (chopped green onions), and add a pinch of garlic powder. Rather than coat the skillet with butter, I just spray it with vegetable oil. My 12 inch cast iron skillet got messed up a few years ago. I sanded it down to bare metal using a palm sander and a lot of hand sanding of the sides, and seasoned it with vegetable oil, and it's better than new!

Grew up in southern WV. My grandparents had a small farm though he was a miner from age 13 until he couldn’t pass the physical at 65 due to lung damage. (interesting aside, the coal mine that flunked him on his physical for lung damage fought his black lung claim). My favorite meal of all time whether it is Nobu in Malibu, Husk or Catbird in Nashville was my Grandmother’s Sunday supper. She would kill a chicken and fry it in a cast iron skillet as old as my mother, new potatoes in white gravy, fresh green beans with pork, fresh sliced tomatoes cucumbers and onions, ears of corn with fresh butter and savory nonsweet cornbread. Those meals now haunt my dreams.

You being in Memphis it’s no surprise you eat Southern food! I to eat “Down Home- Southern cuisine! You don’t have, as far as I have heard you, have a Southern accent. There is so called “ healthy “ Southern food, but what I cook has butter, and bacon grease, salt and Southern spices! I love it and my cornbread is like yours. I bought a long time ago a cast iron muffin pan. It took a long time to season, eventually I it got to no stick status. We like cornbread muffins(more crust) with white beans & ham, fried taters and moist buttered spinach! Sweet iced tea is good with it. Love ALL of you videos! Didn’t know that you cooked? ❤️🌨️ Colorado. Thanxz

Hell yeah! My family calls it a pone and we use bacon grease in the bottom, Indiana style. Looks killer!!

I am from the North Eastern U. S. And I love Southern foods. Grew up on it because my ( moms, Mother ) grandmother was from North Carolina. Then I went to live down there for 2 1/2 years from 18 until I was 21 when I came back to Philadelphia PA.

I appreciate this Lyle. It definitely put a smile on my face. Because why

[BlugubriousMusic]

Let the amp puns begin! Jalepeño = Biasing hot? My wife said, "Now I want cornbread"... gateway to a new amp? Ha ha... I personally dig the variety content.
