For an extra smoky flavor, consider using applewood smoked bacon. If you prefer a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeño peppers before dicing. Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in a tougher cornbread. Ensure your skillet is thoroughly heated in the oven before pouring in the batter to achieve a crispy crust. Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream or a drizzle of honey for added richness.
