Instructions: Mix flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.

In a separate bowl, beat the egg. Add milk and then bacon fat. Stir this mixture slowly into the dry ingredients, mixing well. The batter should be fairly thin; add more milk if necessary. Mix in crumbled bacon.

Heat a lightly greased griddle or skillet over medium heat (375 degrees). Griddle is ready when a few drops of water bubble and skitter rapidly around.

For each pancake, pour scant 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle. Cook pancakes until surface is covered with bubbles and appear dry around the edges. Turn and cook other side until golden brown.
