In this restaurant, it was made with white corn meal. Imagine a damp, anemic looking pancake that has NO color. Ewwwe! :thumbdown:
I've lived in Tennessee for 40 years and never been served anything like that! Where were you?

Yes. We have a restaurant in Ky called Claudia Sanders and they have the best tomato soup. The last time I was there I ask if it was really the recipe in their cookbook. The lady didn't really want to answer, but said she hoped so. I would love to find out their secret. My husband said I might be disappointed because they probably open a can.

I love Hoe Cakes. I make mine with Martha White Self Rising Cornmeal, egg, buttermilk and some hot grease. Fry in hot bacon grease and butter generously. Nothing better. I grew up in a house with a southern daddy and a northern mama, so we usually had Jiffy and Hoe Cakes both. I love them both, but I love the convenience of just mixing up a batch of Hoe Cakes and have them done and eaten in the time it would take to bake the Jiffy. To each his own I guess.

I used to live in Shelbyville, KY and have been to eat there many times. The Colonel himself was there several times when we there. I loved all of the food; especially the creamed corn, and the wonderful deserts. I love family style served meals. Thanks for the memory. Moved from Shelbyville in 1976.

My DH grandmother made him Choc. Gravy.
I make my cornbread from Yellow Cornmeal, flour, eggs, and milk/buttermilk and smother it with real butter. My MIL makes this stuff and calls it cornbread my DH LOVES it. It is like biscuit batter with a half cup of cornmeal put in it. Ever eat a gritty biscuit? When she makes gravy she doesn't brown the flour either. Tastes/looks like wall paper paste. DH always volunteers me to make the gravy.
