For a deeper flavor, consider using a blend of ground beef and chorizo. Add a tablespoon of chili powder or cumin to the beef mixture for extra spice. If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, any oven-safe skillet or baking dish will work. Feel free to substitute other types of beans, such as kidney beans or cannellini beans. For a richer cornbread topping, use buttermilk instead of regular milk.
