    Best corn bread I ever ate. I use milk with 1 teaspoon vinegar instead of buttermilk. I usually make half a recipe in a 6 inch skillet since only 2 in the family but I make it 2-3 times a month.

    This was so good and so easy. It was ample in a 10" skillet to feed 9 hungry people along with Chili and fixings. Check to see if it is done for the shorter amount of time mentioned in the recipe, cast iron can cook pretty fast.

    I've tried many many cornbread recipes, and this is by far the best! So buttery and delicious. Just enough sugar to give a subtle sweet flavor, but not enough to make it seem like a desert. Just like this midwestern girl likes it! It went PERFECTLY with my grandma's ham and beans ladled over it. Mmmm mmmmm. My go-to cornbread recipe from now on! Thanks, Alex! :o

    Love this recipe! I have used cornmeal for years and am always dissatisfied with recipes I have used because they always turn out hard and dry. This recipe produces tender and extremely tasty cornbread. I have finally found my "go to" cornbread recipe.

    Thank you Alex. I have finally found the best corn bread recipe, and can now stop searching. As my daughter said "This is a keeper".

    My family's favorite recipe. I've made this four times in 6 days. I use a little less sugar, and lowfat milk, and it's crumbly, corny, and delicious. It's not a cakey cornbread (which I hate. Perfect recipe.

    Best skillet cornbread ever! I have a pretty good recipe but always thought it was to sweet and a bit too cake like. This one has honest corn flavor, tastes like CORNbread. Followed the recipe to the letter except 2 points. Added 3 large seeded and finely diced Jalepenos and instead of 8 tbs of melted butter I used 7 tbs in the batter and used bacon grease to prepare the skillet.
