Cook 3-4 pieces of bacon until crispy and remove from the pan, leaving the grease.

Chop 1/2 cup of onions and add them to the pan, cooking until softened.

Add 1 pound of ground beef to the pan, breaking it into fine pieces and cooking until browned.

Add 1 cup of tomatoes to the beef mixture and let it simmer.

Stir in 1 cup of chili beans, Worcestershire sauce, cumin, and chili powder to taste.

Add the cooked bacon back into the mixture and flatten it out in the pan.

Prepare the cornbread topping by mixing 1 and 3/4 cups yellow cornmeal, 1 and 1/2 cups buttermilk, and 1 egg in a bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to the cornbread mixture and whisk until combined.

Spoon the cornbread mixture over the beef and bean mixture in the pan, spreading it evenly.

Preheat the cooking method to 425 degrees Fahrenheit using charcoal briquettes (approximately 18-19 briquettes) and place the pan over the heat to cook.
