Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add salt and slowly whisk in the grits. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened (about 20-25 minutes). Stir in milk and cheddar cheese until melted and creamy.

  2. 2

    Cook the Mushrooms

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add local mushrooms and cook until browned and tender (about 5-7 minutes). Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the strip steaks with salt and black pepper. Brush with remaining olive oil and grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    Spoon a generous portion of cheese grits onto each plate. Top with sliced grilled steak, sautéed mushrooms, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Finish with pickled radicchio on top.
