    I was a lucky boy back in the 60's. My grandparents mainly raised me after my mom died at a early age. This was one of my all time favorite things that she made that I loved. She made homemade fresh biscuits everyday. Then on on a Sunday or so she would make the corn dodgers. I still remember packing some in my pockets after dinner when I went out to play. Our dog had to be the luckiest dog on the planet. He never ate dog food. He had grandma's leftovers 3 times a day. He was never chained, tied or fenced in and he never missed a meal. Thanks Kent for the recipe reminder. I have to make these for the family this weekend. PJ

I asked because I was the youngest of three when my father passed when he was only 23. My mother gave me up for adoption - sort of - as she knew the folks adopting me. It worked out great. later, when I met my sister, she told me I was the lucky one.

      That's about a smidgen away from a hushpuppy, although a real hushpuppy should be deep fried in the oil the fish cooks in. I love all of this family of recipes. In scarcity, a home pounded coarse cornmeal, grits really, may be boiled in salt water for a couple of minutes to soften, formed and fried in lard or suet, etc. One of the most basic sustaining items.

I agree with you that these will probably replace corn bread at dinner. Many thanks from those of us who are challenged in the kitchen......or fire pit! It makes me smile at how many are watching for the entertainment value when I am just trying to eat good! After going gluten free for health reasons I have to say....I miss wheat..... but thanks to you and John Wayne, I now have corn dodgers.

      @@norme2681 My family is full of Veterans and we all are/were Wayne fans. My grandfather was a WW1 vet. Both my father and three uncles served in WW2. My father went on to serve in Korea and one uncle served in Viet Nam. All my brothers served in the army during the 70s. Wayne never waivered from being PRO America all his life. In fact it may have cost him his life. I even would call him naive when it came to the US Government polices and statements.
      Wayne wanted to serve his country. He wrote to John Ford numerous times, expressing his wish to enlist. Wayne asked Ford if he could pull some strings for the actor and get him into Ford’s military unit.
      John Wayne was reclassified as 1-A. This made him eligible for the draft, but Republic Studios held their grip tight. They were hoping not to lose their only A-list actor. In fact, the studio threatened a lawsuit against John Wayne if we broke his contract to enlist.
      According to the U.S. National Archives records, Wayne did apply to serve in the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). The actor was granted permission, but his acceptance letter went to his estranged wife’s house. She never informed Wayne of the letter.
      Not all heroes wear capes or pick up a rifle and serve in the military. Just like all the women and men who stayed at home and worked in the factories to make all the weapons and material to fight the war. Or the ones who made USO tours to help keep the morale of the troops up. We could not have won without them.
      You can call Wayne a bad actor if you think that or even a bad person if you think that but to say he was not Patriotic or did not contribute anything to America is just wrong.

    As well as... The two you named, my other favorite John Wayne movie and I know it's a left turn but, "The quiet man" with Maureen O'Hara is an all time favorite of mine, it's definitely rough and tumble and in farm land 😉 But we'll throw Big Jake in the mix, too. I really like that one. Of course McClintock gets a mntion for a true western flair. 😀

    Corn dodgers! The smile it brought to my face when I saw the title cannot be described! Thank you Cowboy Kent for doing this one! Definitely giving these a try. Favorite Wayne movie? In first place is "The Searchers", you see Wayne cast as the opposite he always played and did a pretty good job. Next would be the John Ford Calvary Trilogy with "The Quiet Man" fighting for positon. Thank you and Shannon for all you do!

      Yep, we called it "Mexican Cornbread" growing up. Momma made corn pone too, which is basically the same as corn dodgers. She used butter or bacon grease to fry them in and would sit them on a plate on the stove so we could grab one all day. They were bland but at the same time really good. Perfect fuel for a kid playing outside.

    In Mexico they've made these way back. The version I'm familiar with is shaped like the Sponge cake bowls sold in the produce section for covering with strawberries. They then fill them with chorizo, Black beans, cheese, or eggs. Almost anything is fair game. I love them with Barbacoa. Think I'll do some with eggs for breakfast. They also do a version like this known (at least by some ) as Panachitos. A little honey will make them way less bland.

I love our country's history and learning about the things you teach. I watched True Grit when it first came out. The book was our reading in the 8th grade. After we finished the book, our class went on a field trip to see the movie. I probably would have to say that was my favorite John Wayne movie. But before that,,, definitely McClintock. Absolutely love John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. The 'Best' acting couple!

    First John Wayne movie I ever saw on the big screen: North To Alaska, with Stewart Granger, Ernie Kovacs, teen heart throb, Fabian, and sexy Capucine. Maybe not his best, but Johnny Horton's feel-good theme song of the same name more than made up for it. I'm going on 73 and I still remember its exciting impact on me as a 9 year old kid in 1960.

    I’m reading Charles Portis’s True Grit again and thought I’d look up corn dodgers, so that’s why I’m here. I lived in western Colorado right near where John Wayne made the movie. You can go to almost anywhere in that movie if you ask around. Matty Ross’s house is still standing, and in Ridgway, Ouray County, you can see all the buildings in the movie. Owl Creek Pass, northeast of town, has a lot of scenery from the movie, too. It’s God’s gift to the world, it’s that beautiful around there. If I could, I’d go back there in a heartbeat. Wish I’d never left, but California millionaires made it too expensive to live there by buying up all the houses and available land after doing the same at Telluride.
