Oh man... This was not the thread to look at when you're hungry!!! My wife was born and raised down here. She makes some pretty good southern food. I never really liked lima beans before until she made some that had smoked ham hocks in it... MMM... I have to fight my kids to get a plate. I'll have to have her try out that way of making cornbread.
Fry up some eggs and some of that sausage and slap it between some fried cornbread... Lookout! I'd need a nap right after breakfast...lol..
Oh yeah, we call fried cornbread Hoe Cake. It's mixed thin and poured in a hot cast iron skillet with a little bacon grease. Pour it about the size of a large pancake. The edges will crisp up like Treefarmer said and make the lace. It goes good with everything. It gets it's name form the days when the farmers went into the fields with their hoes. They'd bring a bag of cornmeal mixed with flour and salt and for lunch they'd mix in the water, heat up their hoe over a fire and pour it on it to cook it. Good stuff for sure.
