Buttermilk Bacon Grease Cornbread

• 1 1/4 cups (175 g) cornmeal
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 3 tablespoons bacon grease, plus extra for greasing the pan
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 cup buttermilk

1. Heat oven to 425u0b0 F.
2. Grease a cast iron skillet with bacon grease and place in the oven while it heats.
3. Mix the first four ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Cut in the fat with your fingers or two knives, mixing well until you have a sandy texture.
4. Combine the eggs and the buttermilk, add to the dry ingredients, and mix to combine well.
5. Pour the mixture into the hot skillet and bake for 20 minutes. Invert onto a plate. I like to serve it upside down with the nice crispy side up like my grandma did!
