Try it with a cast iron skillet. We have one that is used exclusively for corn bread. Can't beat em.

Mud is right about that old cast iron skillet. It will brown the bottom on cornbread better than anything.
Questions: Is the Jack cheese pepper jack?
300* seems very low for breads. But your recipe has lots of liquids. Maybe the lower temp and longer bake time makes it better??
Regardless, Mex Cornbread is a special dish at my table.

I agree with Mud and Mack cast iron skillets are the best for corn bread. Mack that is plain monterey jack ( no pepper )
But, this is different from any corn bread I've ever ate.
Try this,the corn bread that is left over,cut in 3/4" strips and fry in a pan until golden brown.

It does look good. I will surely give it a try this summer. Still on rather bland foods for now.

I was just making a recipe card for my box for this cornbread, and suddenly realized that cooking oil is not included. Cornbread ALWAYS Must have oil, right? Then, I realized that this recipe calls for a whole cup, that's 1/2 pound, of BUTTER!! There's the oil.
With that much butter, it cannot fail. I'll make it sooner rather than later. I might rename it Mexican Corn Cake tho.

Hub, you just kicked cornbread up a notch with this recipe. Just a wedge of this "cornbread" and a big avocado salad on the side?? Creveza fria. Good!.
