Any cornmeal will work. You'll just have to experiment and see what kind
you like, if you like it at all. I only make cornbread with chili and I
only make chili maybe once every 2 years.

I use the Jiffy Corn Muffin mix in a box for only about 33-50 cents
each. Don't make muffins, I bake it in an 8" round cake pan. Once it
comes out of the oven, I melt lots of butter on top of it.

No need for me to make from scratch as I would only be trying to
recreate the Jiffy recipe. A box or 2 of that every year or two works
for me.
