This easy to prepare corn casserole is a great accompaniment to serve with BBQ chicken or pulled pork and makes a wonderful side dish to include in a buffet.
With this recipe it’s important to have all the ingredients organized and the pan prepared. You begin by cooking the cornmeal in the traditional manner on the cooktop for about 10 minutes but it needs a lot of stirring during that time. Then you add the remainder of the ingredients, transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and bake.
