Mama's Cornbread

I'm always on the lookout for a new cornbread recipe that would be comparable to my grandmother's! So when I received a copy of "ABC 33/40 Great Recipe Book" I was excited to find this one. It came from Sheriff Mike Hale of Jefferson County and this is what he had to say about it:

"Every Sunday after church, the whole family would go to Mama Hale's house for dinner. There was always a lot of folks there. All the cooking was good, but the cornbread was my favorite, hot with butter. Also, teh cornbread in a cold glass of buttermilk was good with the meal. Great food and memories!"
