Mix Cornmeal, water and salt in a bowl. Mixture will be thin.
1/2 cup cornmeal mix, 1/2 cup of water, 1/4 teaspoon salt
Heat bacon grease with butter until melted and hot. Over low to medium heat.
2 tablespoons bacon grease, 2 tablespoons butter
When grease is hot, spread about 2 tablespoons of cornmeal mixture to pan in small circular cakes. Doing only 2 or 3 at a time, cook 1-3 minutes per side, turning carefully until edges are brown.
Carefully remove from pan when crispy and brown to drain on a paper towel. Enjoy!
*If your cornmeal thickens while you are cooking, add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time to thin to original consistency.*This recipe makes 8-10 small pones. If you make more, add more butter and bacon grease as needed between cookings. Bring temperature back up once adding more oil before cooking more cornbread.
