  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 3.5 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 large egg

1 Food Prep

  • Combine all of your dry cornbread ingredients into a large mixing bowl. We recommend sifting the dry ingredients for a smoother batter.

2 Grill Prep

3 The Cook

  • When your grill reaches 400ºF, place your skillet with the batter on the middle rack of the grill if possible to allow for even air flow and close the lid. Bake for 25 minutes at 400°F.
  • While your cornbread is baking, make the honey butter by whisking together the following ingredients: 2 sticks of butter (melted), ¼ cup of honey and a splash of bourbon (optional).
  • Remove your cornbread from the grill once it has a golden brown exterior.
  • Drizzle on the honey butter, slice and serve!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It freezes well too! I don't have bourbon in the house and for one person it makes a lot, so I recommend freezing some in air-tight container for future eating. Love the kick of jalapeno and combo of cornbread-great flavor

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Cornbread Ever This recipe is PERFECT. It's easy and so tasty. I'd never baked my cornbread on the grill before, but I will definitely be doing it often. It's hard to stop eating this cornbread!
