“All right fellas, we’re gonna make camp, rest up. Y’all might be in for a treat. You know back before the war broke out I was a saucier in San Antone. I bet I could collar up some of them greens, yeah, some crawfish out the paddy, yo’! Ha! I’m makin’ some crabapples for dessert now, yo! Hell yeah, ha!”
– Kirk Lazarus, Tropic Thunder

Impressions:
The Rog messed up hardcore. You know that specific direction above where it says whisk the ingredients together? I realized once everything was already mixed together that said whisk was not in my possession, and it turns out that made all the difference in the recipe.
Did I do thaaaaaaaaaaat? Yes, Steve Urkel, yes you did. Make sure you have a whisk when you make this, or if you don’t have one at least make sure that you’re pretty handy with a spoon, which I unfortunately wasn’t.
Aside from the crunchy and lumpiness that came about due to my whack mixing skills, this recipe tasted pretty good. The only corn bread that I had on a regular basis was what my mom made from the jiffymix box, so I feel one step closer to world domination now that I’ve made my own from scratch. If you like leftovers or want something quick to bring to a party, this is the recipe for you. Me though? I’m the Kirby of the fitness world – I’ll inhale food like nobodies business – so needless to say this only lasted about 3 days in La Casa De Rog.

I’ll have to go with the 3725 calories for the entire recipe (all by myself, of course) . Good thing I have room for all that in my stomachs. Seriously.
I’d expecting nothing less from you!
I’m gonna have to try this one out at some point as I have always been a huge fan of cornbread. Though too be honest, I usually like mine accompanied by ribs and mac n’ cheese.
*gasp* You speak of the holiest of trinities! I knew I liked your style when I met you, but now it’s 100% verified.
