Just a nice simple cornbread that gets a delicious crust from the skillet. You can add pickled jalapenos for a nice change, or even a little garlic, but sometimes simple is best.

2 cups buttermilk
1 large egg
1 3/4 cups cornmeal
3/4 cup flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450F.
2. Coat a 10-inch cast iron skillet with the bacon drippings.
3. Place skillet in the oven to preheat.
4. Mix together buttermilk, egg, cornmeal, 3/4 cup flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, stirring just until blended.
5. Pour batter into the preheated skillet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the top is nicely golden and firm.
