I love a large slice of Homemade Buttermilk Cornbread with many of my meals. A must with stew or soup, yummy with chili. I like serving with pork roast, black-eyed peas or a large bowl of pinto beans, onion and fried potatoes or any kinds of beans. Really cornbread is delicious with just about any meal. If there is any leftover my husband loves for me to make Cornbread Salad.
