Ingredients

1 lb. ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers or bell peppers, chopped
1 c. cornmeal
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. soda
1 c. milk
1 can cream-style corn
2 eggs
1/3 c. bacon drippings

Directions

1

Place first 3 ingredients in skillet and brown until meat shows no pink.
2

Mix rest of ingredients (I usually crumble up the bacon and put in there too).
3

Grease large iron skillet.
4

(I usually spray Pam on it before greasing it; it makes it much easier to clean and keeps the cornbread from sticking.)
5

Sprinkle with cornmeal and brown.
6

Pour half of batter into skillet; put in meat mixture and sprinkle with cheese.
7

Pour in remaining batter and bake at 350° for 45 minutes.
