What’s BBQ or chili without some cornbread? And we’d add to that, “What’s cornbread without some chili peppers?” JalapeƱo cornbread muffins are one of the tastiest sides known to man for rich barbecue flavors and chili soups, and we don’t think that’s an exaggeration at all. Plus, as the name states – these are seriously easy to make.

Easy Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins

The corn bread’s sweet earthiness paired with the bright jalapeƱo bight pairs perfectly with that sweet spicy tang found in barbecue. It’s an easy recipe to make, so don’t let another cookout go by withoutĀ them! This recipe works with most any barbecue meat, though we’re partial to saucy pulled pork or shredded beef.
