How to make the best southern cornbread to have with your garden fresh vegetables

I'm normally the one that does all of the cooking in our house. When it comes to cornbread, I always let Harold make it. There is something about the way he makes it, that is better than when I do it...even using the same recipe!

Thanks for following! And remember to be salt and light! - Sue

My Mom was born and raised in Virginia and she liked to crumble corn bread into a bowl and pour buttermilk over it. Spent time on grandparents farm. Home made everything on a wood burning stove. No electricity, no indoor plumbing. This was many years ago. I am 84.Be safe, healthy and happy. 😇

My Southern cornbread uses YELLOW cornmeal - true southern - no sugar. That's how we do it in Texas.

I love watching you both. I watch every day without fail. And I love when Harold participates. That said, today you lost me. Putting sugar in cornbread is the ULTIMATE SOUTHERN SIN!! I want cornbread, not cake!! But I guess we all like it the way our mommas and grandmas made it, and sugar was never a part of cornbread. I get so disappointed when I go to so-called “Southern” restaurants and they serve sweet cornbread. I wish they had the option of no-sugar. End of rant. LOL God bless you both. I love your ministry and the way you present yourselves and your lovely family.

I had the job of making biscuits and cornbread growing up--Daddy wanted flat biscuits and cornbread without sugar. I had to make them and eat them like that then, but now I make fluffy biscuits and sweet cornbread! That's the way I like them (& my husband does, too).

No sugar in the cornbread in lower S E Alabama
As daddy would say, if i want cake i make cake.

I've always used White Lily Self Rising Cornmeal, sometimes I use Martha White. I always follow the directions on the back of the bag of cornmeal to make mine. Thing is, I don't have a cast iron skillet. I use a round 9 inch pan with a liberal amount of canola oil cooking spray. It always comes out looking so good and perfect. It is a little thick, but that's how I've always eaten cornbread growing up.

I like that square skillet. I use MW cornbread mix all the time and it’s better with buttermilk, IMO. Then you can use leftover buttermilk for a buttermilk pie! 😂

Good job Harold. A lot of men are excellent cooks! I know my Daddy was ❤. No sugar y'all.... Everything else Yes ❤❤❤

Yummy, that looks delicious. I live up north, and I get my self rising cornbread mix from Amazon. Thanks for sharing your recipe Harold. 🙂♥️

Mama Sue, you so much remind me of my grandmother on my mother's side. She was a great diplomat throughout her life and I can see that in the way you interact with Harold. Men make really good cooks. I make cornbread all the time in my mama's cast iron Griswold frying pan she got as a wedding present in 1951. Just use the recipe on the back of the corn meal and I like Tenda-Bake White Corn Meal Mix and don't add salt or sugar. We have it with pinto beans or chili beans. I've heard the word "pone" as in corn pone, but never knew it meant a pan of cornbread until recently.

I remember Justin. I used to watch him all the time. I really enjoy all your videos too!

We love cornbread too but I make it like my mama did and she didn’t put an egg in it, but she did put a little sugar in it and we do use buttermilk. Love to hear the sizzle when we pour it in because we love that crunchy crust too. You all are a sweet couple. 😊♥️

Mama Sue, you and your husband are so delightful. Loved watching you cook together!!

I add a little s flour so the c bread is not quite so grainy.

I’m in Louisiana and everyone I know puts sugar in cornbread if u eat it with a meal. Cornbread for a cornbread dressing is without sugar.
My husband is frm Mich. and when I made cornbread there they called it Jonny cake. It’s all good however you make it.
I also put the same amount of flour as cornmeal. It’s how my grand mother and mama made it.

[debbieellison]

At night we would eat chopped up cornbread, milk and sugar on top in a glass. My Mom would put hers in a glass also but only with buttermilk!

[teresafincher]

My father-in-law always made the best cornbread! His would be kinda runny and he would put a pinch of baking soda in his. He tried teaching me but it never tasted like his. I could make a meal with his cornbread and a glass of iced tea!

[lindamymixtap]

Yum! Nice job Harold! That looks delicious, you might have to start cooking with Mama Sue in the kitchen, 😅❤❤❤

[GlendaShook]
