I cook it that way to avoid some of the mess the stovetop cooking makes :-) No, you don’t have to turn it but you should be sure and spoon some of the hot oil over the top when you put it in the oven.

I grew up on this stuff. I have never made corn pone that way, though. Mom taught us to fry it in the cast iron skillet on top of the stove. (We call if fried corn bread.) Do you have to turn it?

You know, the old folks always said that greens taste sweeter if they are picked after the first frost. If I had any planted, they would be pretty tasty after last night. When there's a bit of cool in the air, nothing can match turnip greens, corn pone, and roasted sweet potatoes. Yum!!! Miss P Yep, that’s about as good as it gets.

I keep a little jar of bacon grease in the refrigerator all the time. I don't use it as often as I used to, but it's always there...just in case. And, yes, it was dinner, not lunch! And later that evening was supper. Absolutely! I keep a little jar of bacon grease in the refrigerator all the time. I don’t use it as often as I used to, but it’s always there…just in case.

EVERY good Southern cook keeps bacon grease on hand. When I lived in CA, everyone thought I was nuts...the questions was always WHY do you keep bacon grease??? Definitely a Southern thang! The corn pones recipe reminds me of of Sunday dinner at my Grandmothers. YUM!!! And it was dinner, NOT lunch! :-) Lana,

I love greens, all kinds of greens. I married a southern boy and being from an Italian family, well the greens were right in there! Never made pones, so I'm putting your recipe on my must try list! Thanks for sharing it Nana Lana. Oh this is making me hungry! I love greens, all kinds of greens. I married a southern boy and being from an Italian family, well the greens were right in there!
