THREE RIVERS CORNBREAD RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Add beans (with seasoning packet) and water to a large crock pot then cook for 4-6 hours on high or until beans are tender.
• Meanwhile, cook onions with ground beef until beef is cooked through, seasoning with salt and pepper then set aside.
• Cut bacon into small strips then cook until crispy and browned. Remove bacon from pan drippings then set aside.
• Cut smoked sausage into bite-sized pieces then set aside.
• Once beans are tender, ladle out any excess liquid; set aside to use later if needed. Add salt and pepper to taste, barbeque sauce and remaining ingredients, including the ground beef, bacon and smoked sausage. Gently stir to combine.
• Add reserved liquid from cooking the beans, 1/2 cup at a time, if needed to ensure the contents of the crock pot have a nice, thick sauce. You don’t want things to be runny but you do want to make sure there’s enough sauce to coat everything nicely (such as with baked beans).
• Continue cooking 1-2 hours on high or until sausage is heated through and everything is hot and bubbly.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Whisk together the cornmeal, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and egg in a bowl to form a batter.
• Melt the butter in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat, and swirl the melted butter all over the bottom and up the sides of the skillet. Let the butter heat until it gives off a faint toasted fragrance; pour the batter into the hot skillet.
• Place the skillet into the preheated oven, and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
