I make my own cornmeal with popping corn kernels in a heavy duty blender. It takes a little work, because you have to keep straining out the fine cornmeal and re-grinding the bigger pieces it until you get your preferred consistency. This, to me, makes the best cornbread.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01052378370838422538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1698127783544728862.post-37640832091129585912021-01-03T14:29:59.214-06:002021-01-03T14:29:59.214-06:00Hello.

We used our own liquid smoke that I had saved from the last beef brisket we smoked. We needed 4 ounces, but only had 3. To make up for the difference I rehydrated a chipotle chili pepper from the last batch we smoked, and I removed the stem, pith and seeds. This went into the blender with the onions, garlic and pepperoncinis. We were short one 18 ounce bottle of Hickory Smoke BBQ sauce, so we used a half a can of tomato paste with an equal amount of water. Oh my, this recipe just keeps getting better and better. Next time we may swap out the olive oil for some of the bacon grease I've been saving in the fridge.

I'd eat a pizza with just this sauce on it. It also leaves you with a delightful little after-glow from the black and chili pepper.

It was the Mission brand. I haven't found it in a couple of years now, so I oven roast, peel and remove the seeds from Jalapeño peppers. These I pack in a jar with a couple of tablespoon of white vinegar and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. These can be preserved in the refrigerator for up to a year. Use one diced Jalapeño per can of diced tomatoes as you Ro-Tel substitute.

It is this high starch, fibrous (yet still fresh on the cob) that is used (and works!) to make the pancakes. If you cannot get the local CR corn, then, yes, you probably have to use a little wheat flour and an egg.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303565641078069776noreply@blogger.com
