There’s nothing more Lowcountry than starting your corn bread off in a hot skillet sizzling with butter. It creates a rich and crispy toffee-like crust that’s possible only with cast iron. It’s important to note that this isn’t one of those dry-your-mouth-out-crumbly corn breads. In fact, it’s the polar opposite.
