1
Prepare the Cooking Liquid
In a medium-sized pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
2
Add Salt
Once the water is boiling, stir in 1 teaspoon of salt.
3
Add Grits
Gradually whisk in 1 cup of stoneground grits, ensuring there are no lumps.
4
Simmer
Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the grits simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are thick and creamy.

5
Add Butter and Cheese
Remove the pot from heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese until melted and combined.
6
Season
Add black pepper to taste, stirring well to incorporate.
7
Serve
Spoon the grits into bowls and serve hot, optionally garnished with additional cheese or pepper if desired.
