Steps:

• Add the mascarpone, bacon and bacon fat to a bowl and whisk until combined. Slowly pour in the Base Vinaigrette, vigorously whisking to blend smoothly, until completely combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
• Serve with salads and crudite, as a French fry dip or as a spread for a sandwich.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the vinegar, shallots and 1 teaspoon water. Slowly stream in the oils while whisking. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• For the batter and filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add the cornbread mix. In a medium bowl, whisk the milk, paprika, bacon, eggs, scallions and lime zest. Fold the egg mixture into the cornbread mix. Let rest 5 minutes.
• In a 12-cup muffin tin lined with muffin liners, divide half of the batter among all 12 cups. Then add the mozzarella in an even layer and top each with a piece of pepper jack. Gently press down to make everything even. Pour over the remaining batter and spread evenly. Bake until the tops are golden, about 20 minutes.
• For the glaze: Meanwhile, in a small pot, add the jelly, lime juice, butter and a splash of water. Heat until the mixture begins to simmer.
• Remove the muffins from the oven and immediately pour a spoonful of the glaze over the top of each. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire cooling rack on top of the baking sheet and arrange the bacon on the rack. Bake until the bacon is crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Set 5 bacon strips aside, then chop remaining bacon into small pieces.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add the chopped scallions, sprinkle with a small pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the scallions are browned in spots, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Grease a round 8-inch springform pan or cake pan with butter. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Add the milk, egg, honey and 1/4 cup olive oil and whisk until smooth. Stir in the chopped bacon, scallions and cheddar cheese. Pour the batter into the prepared pan; use a spoon to spread the batter into an even layer.
• Arrange the remaining bacon strips on top of the batter, trimming them as necessary, then bake until the cornbread is browned and firm in the center, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then run a kitchen knife around the edges of the pan to loosen. Cut into pieces and serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a 10-inch cast iron pan on medium-high heat add the bacon and saute until almost crisp then add the onions and season with a pinch of salt and a couple of grinds of pepper. Saute until the onions are tender, then add the garlic and stir. When the garlic is tender use a slotted spoon to remove the mixture to a medium bowl and set aside. Leave the bacon fat in the cast iron pan and keep it on medium heat while you make the batter.
• In a large bowl combine the cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir the buttermilk, eggs, butter, and chiles into the bowl with the bacon mixture. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gently pour in the egg mixture. Fold until all the ingredients are combined. Immediately pour the batter into the cast iron pan. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
• Glaze: Melt the butter, sugar and a pinch of salt together in a small pan over low heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Once the cornbread is done, remove it from the oven and immediately pour the glaze over the top. Slice and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a cast iron skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels, reserving bacon grease in the skillet. Spread the grease up the sides of the skillet using a paper towel.
• Cook jalapeno peppers in the bacon grease over medium heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
• Combine cornmeal and skim milk together in a bowl; let sit until some of the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Mix eggs and butter into cornmeal mixture; stir into flour mixture just until batter is moist. Fold jalapeno peppers, 1/2 cup pepperjack cheese, and green onions into batter. Pour batter into the cast iron skillet; crumble bacon over top and sprinkle remaining cheese over bacon.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 18 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Saute the onions and celery in the bacon drippings, until soft but not browned.
• Let cool slightly.
• Toss the cornbread, bread, bacon, poultry seasoning, parsley, salt and pepper until mixed well.
• Add the cooked celery and onions and toss to mix well.
• Add the eggs and 1 cup of the chicken broth and stir to moisten, adding as much broth as needed.
• (Everytime is going to be different.) This is a personal taste decision.
• I like my dressing moist so I add broth until I have a very wet mixture.
• Any type pan will work for baking.
• I generally use a 8 x 8 disposable pan, but if I am making a double batch I use a 9 x 13 pan.
• Bake for 30 min, uncovered, or until golden on top.
• This is enough to stuff an 8 to 10 lb turkey, if you so desired.
• **NOTE**I have made this several times for vegetarian dinners, omitting the bacon, drippings and chicken broth and substituting with either butter, or olive oil and vegetable broth with great success.
• ALSO--If you save leftover pieces of cornbread/bread heels in a ziploc bag in your freezer, you will have half the work already done when your ready to make this.
