Chef Notes:
Make-Ahead: You can make these up to 1 hour ahead of time. Keep warm wrapped in foil and in the oven at 175° before serving.
How to Reheat: Place on a pan wrapped in foil and heat in the oven at 350° for 6-8 minutes or until hot. You can also heat in the microwave.
How to Store: Place covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Cover and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator for 1 day, or until unfrozen, before reheating.
It is best to use finely ground cornmeal, but you can extend that to a medium or coarse ground as well.
To further enhance the flavor of these hoecakes, I would absolutely advise using rendered bacon fat instead of butter.
You can absolutely use milk in place of the buttermilk.
If you want to make your own buttermilk, simply mix 1 tablespoon of white distilled vinegar or lemon juice with 1 cup of milk.
You can also cook the hoecakes in butter instead of oil.
