- ½ tsp - Salt
- 2 Eggs
- ½ cup - Butter, melted

Preparation
- Preheat your charcoal grill for indirect heat to 350°F.
- Butter a 10 inch cast iron skillet.
- In a bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with melted butter and buttermilk. Slowly add the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a rubber spatula. Add the grated cheddar.
- Transfer batter to a buttered skillet. Pour the Red Habanero hot sauce in different places over the batter. Using a wooden skewer, gently stir the sauce into the batter to create irregular patterns of hot sauce throughout the cornbread.

- Let rest 15 minutes before serving.
