Ingredients

1 c. fine, water ground corn meal
1 1/4 c. water
bacon drippings (oil will do)
salt

Mix
meal, salt and water together.
This will be about pouring
consistency.
Heat
iron skillet (or Teflon) and pour in bacon drippings, just enough to cover bottom of pan.
Pour mix
in center
of
pan until it almost touches sides of pan. Turn
with spatula
when edges brown.
Cook a little more and drain

we usually eat it with country butter or break it up in a glass and pour milk over it.
