Hey!
The SOB's stole my recipe. Except they added Jack cheese and didn't use jalapeņos.
I'm gonna sue 'em.

Add to that mixture about 1/2 lb. of seasoned breakfast sausage and it will be complete.

I wonder how it would be with "cracklins" added- about a cup of crushed chicharrones?
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

Great-sounding recipes! Now, can somebody tell me where yellow cornmeal can be found in La Paz?

Making some today!
to go with my 4th of July chili. Will report back on the results but I am already thinking that only 2 oz of green chiles is NOT enough for this
recipe. I may be pushing the envelope on this........

The cornbread was a HUGE hit! Disappeared faster than a coyote after dropping off a load of illegals.
