Every time we make pulled pork, we save some to top on these cornmeal waffles at brunch the next day. These cornmeal waffles are good on their own, but exceptional when paired with pulled pork.

In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and melted butter. In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. Fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix. Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes.
Preheat your waffle iron.
Pour or scoop the the mixture into a hot waffle iron (I used a ½ cup measuring cup for each waffle, but waffle makers vary). Cook waffles until golden brown and cooked through. See notes below on how to determine when a waffle is done.
To serve
Heat up the leftover pulled pork. Add a generous serving of pulled pork on each waffle. Serve with honey or maple syrup.
Notes
To determine if a waffle is done, watch the steam escape from the waffle maker. When the steam becomes very thin and almost stops, the waffle will be ready. Once the steam completely stops, the waffle will be well-done.Recipe barely adapted from King Arthur Flour.
