    I liked the flavor of this cornbread recipe but was a little put off by the texture of the coarse corn meal. The coarse corn meal made it a bit crunchy, and even though the corn bread itself was moist and flavorful, it was hard to get used to. I loved using the cast iron skillet, however and will try this recipe again soon with regular yellow cornmeal.

    I used the exact ingredients except for being a little heavier on the butter. After pouring the batter into the hot buttered skillet I heated it on top of the stove on high heat until the corners started to bubble then placed it in the oven (an old family trick. It turned out great!

    I always feel like I did something wrong when a recipe with so many five star ratings is such a disappointment. The recipe say cook for 20-25 min and I only cooked it for twenty and it was soooooo dry. It didn't appear overdone at all but I couldn't believe how dry this came out. All the other reviews commented on the moist butteryness so I may try this again to see if I did something wrong. As for this time though, not impressed.

    OMG - this is the BEST cornbread I have ever tasted!! I just bought some organic cornmeal from Whole Foods and was looking for a good cornbread recipe. I love that it is cooked in the cast iron skillet - it was wonderful. I cut the butter to 6 tablespoons and used skim milk (that is what I had. DEFINITELY making this again and again.

    Best Cornbread I have had.. and I grew up in the South..eating it all the time, I used the corn meal from Virginia, which is not coarse as the recipe called for, it is very fine like a flour.. I also used Splenda (I am diabetic.. instead of sugar, and the Splenda package said to spray the top with a baking spray like Pam, in order to brown, that did not work, so when the cornbread was finished I put it under the broiler until it was brown to my liking, and I have to say it was the best corn bread I have ever had.. will make this over and over..

    Good recipe. Had to look for the coarsely ground meal. We need MORE of Alex...she is very under-rated.

    It's not possible for anything to be too buttery!
