    Awesome guys. My wife could fit right into these cooking discussions. She doesnt mess around either. Fortunately I get to eat some really good southern cooking

    Speaking of crisco, butter, margarine, etc. The old school approach is always to collect your bacon grease. Save it in a can or jar. Use it like crisco. THIS is the key to good cornbread (and come Thanksgiving, cornbread dressing.)

    Dawg you make this forum stuff way easier. I was going to post earlier that my wife saves bacon grease in the fridge. Uses it to season veggies during the week when she has less time to prepare meals. Just thought nah. Happy to say our cholesterol is ok also

    When I was learning how to make biscuits I used lard because it was cheap so I didn't feel so bad when I messed up. After I got better making them I switched to Crisco.

    I'm currently using my husband's grandmother's iron skillet. I don't think it's ever been washed. Also a little trick I learned making cornbread, if you don't have buttermilk use 2 heaping tablespoons of sour cream and whole milk. Works like a charm.
