Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups water
3 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup stone-ground grits
8 ounces white cheddar cheese, grated (about 2 cups)

Steps:

  • Combine the water, milk, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Whisk in the grits. Cook, stirring frequently, for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Grits are ready when they are creamy and tender throughout. (It is important to stir often so that the grits do not stick to the bottom of the pan. If the grits absorb all of the water and milk before they are done, add hot water as needed to thin them out until they reach the desired consistency.)
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the cheese. Serve immediately. (The grits can be prepared in advance and reheated over very low heat.)

I'm not a big fan of grits, but these were pretty good. The creamy sauce helped to make them more palatable and the stone ground grits added a nice texture.

I've made these grits several times now and they're always a hit. The creamy sauce is so delicious and the stone ground grits give them a great texture. I love serving them with fried chicken or shrimp.

The grits were creamy and cooked perfectly, but the sauce was a bit too rich for my taste. I would recommend using less butter and cream next time.

These grits were a bit too bland for my taste. I had to add a lot of extra salt and pepper to make them palatable.
