Recipe - Skillet Corn Pone

1 cup Yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoon White cornmeal
One half cup Bacon drippings
1 cup Milk
One half teaspoon Salt

Preparation time: 5 minutes Cooking time: about 25 minutes

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pour about half the bacon grease into a
10inch castiron skillet, place in the oven and heat until fat just barely
starts to smoke.

In a medium bowl, mix cornmeal, milk and salt. Pour batter into hot skillet
and bake 12 minutes. Remove skillet from oven, pour the rest of the bacon
fat on top and return to oven about 13 minutes. ("Some crumbled bacon on
top," Walters says, "wouldn't hurt, either.")
