Yo Carlo, recipe thread ping!

As one of his spare-time projects, Xena's Guy is attempting to replicate his father's barbecue sauce.

So far he's been disappointed with the results, but what I've tasted is good enough to make me jump up and slap my mama.

(But then, he's a purist who wants Dad's sauce exactly. I just like good sauce. And most of the time, Mom deserves it.)

Honey Golden Cornbread

This could be a real challenge to the famous Marie Callender national restaurant cornbread recipe.. My family asks for my navy bean soup so I will make this cornbread recipe, with honey butter.. enjoy!

• 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 tsp. salt
• 3/4 cup cornmeal
• 1-1/4 cups whole milk
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/4 cup shortening
• 1/3 cup sugar


Preheat oven to 400°F.
1) Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar and salt in a medium bowl.
2) Add the milk, shortening and egg and mix only until all the ingredients are well combined.
3) Pour the batter into a greased 8x8-inch pan.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Let the cornbread cool slightly before slicing it with a sharp knife into 9 pieces.

Special Honey butter

For the honey butter, use a mixer on high speed to whip the butter and honey together until smooth and fluffy.
