Best cornbread

I used to make cornbread with beans on the river boats and the best cornbread is made with chopped onions, jalapenos and bacon. I also used to make hushpuppies with those ingredients as well. Let me tell you when you do it with those ingredients the taste is phenomenal, and you won't go back to plain cornbread again. Use bacon grease and buttermilk too it adds flavor you'll like. Geno

My experience with corn bread was jalapenos are a must and yes bacon fat makes the difference. I made it for someone once who thought they were cherries in the mix. They were surprised!
