Emeril's Cast-Iron Honey Cornbread image

Here's a great way to cook a whole meal outdoors: Make cornbread in a cast-iron skillet right on the grill, alongside your meat! Now, don't skip the honey-butter topping -- slather it on the hot cornbread and watch 'em come running.

Just made this cornbread and it was delicious! The honey gave it a nice sweetness and the cast iron skillet gave it a crispy crust. Definitely a keeper recipe.

This cornbread is amazing! It's so easy to make and it always turns out perfect. I love that it's not too sweet and it has a great texture. I've made it several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser.

This cornbread was a hit with my family! The honey added a delicious sweetness that balanced out the cornmeal perfectly. The cast iron skillet gave the cornbread a crispy outer crust and a moist, tender interior. I will definitely be making this corn
