Question about my grandma's cornbread sticking to the pan, she said heat it longer and she was right

I called my grandma in Amarillo after my cornbread came out in 6 pieces and she asked how long I preheated the skillet, I said 5 minutes, and she said double it. Did 10 minutes on the stove top with a little bacon grease and the next loaf slid out whole, not a crumb left behind. Anyone else preheat way longer than the recipe says, or am I just late to the party?
