Anyone have a tried and true cornbread recipe? Jiffy box is not what I am looking for anymore.

Why not? Jiffy box is money.

The best will be with stoneground meal. That said, this works pretty dang good.
Preheat oven to 425
Mix together:
1 cup self rising corn meal
3 T oil or bacon grease
1 large egg
Whole milk or buttermilk, enough until the mix thickly pours from the mixing spoon.
Preheat a cast iron skillet, 8 inch, on the stove top. Oil or Pam when hot. Pour in the mix and pop in the oven.
Cook until golden on top...around 20 minutes on a middle rack.

Your opinion which combined with a dollar would buy you a cup of gas station coffee. I'll Stick with the box while you make an inferior cornbread just to be able to say you made it from scratch.

I like the Krusteaz box mix just fine myself

I grew up on scratchmade cornbread made in cast iron molds. The one that made sticks shaped vaguely like ears of corn was the best.
I feed my family Jiffy now.

I just add half a cup of S/R Cornmeal to a box of Jiffy to cut the sweetness some. I think it tastes just fine.

If you find stone ground meal, add 1 t salt and 1/2 t baking powder to the egg, oil, and 1 cup of meal. Use the milk/buttermilk and add until the mix thickly pours from a spoon. It'll be a better product than the self rising mix, IMHO.

My wife and I use the Pioneer Woman recipe. Always turns out great -- even the times I've made it drunk. Don't skimp, use real buttermilk.
LINK
1 cup Yellow Cornmeal
1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1 cup Buttermilk
1/2 cup Milk
1 whole Egg
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4 cup Shortening
2 Tablespoons Shortening
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Combine cornmeal, flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl. Stir together.
Measure the buttermilk and milk in a measuring cup and add the egg. Stir together with a fork. Add the baking soda and stir.
Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir with a fork until combined.
In a small bowl, melt 1/4 shortening. Slowly add melted shortening to the batter, stirring until just combined. In an iron skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons shortening over medium heat. Pour the batter into the hot skillet. Spread to even out the surface. (Batter should sizzle.)
Cook on stovetop for 1 minute, then bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Edges should be crispy!

This one is easy and killer:
2 boxes of Jiffy mix
1 can or cream style corn
8 oz of sour cream
3 eggs
1 stick of butter
Mix all together and let sit for about 20-30 mins. Bake at 350-375 for 30-40 mins.
It’s killer! You can add jalapeños to it if you want. It’s moist as hell.

Best post here. Cracklin cornbread was my grandfathers favorite and mine as well. Can use crumbled bacon as well.
I like Otis’s recipe. I find Jiffy too sweet.
