Method

Instructions

Prepare the Grits

In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the salt and slowly add the grits, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.

Cook the Grits

Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let the grits simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are thick and creamy.

Add Cheese and Butter

Once the grits are cooked, remove them from heat and stir in the butter and sharp cheddar cheese until melted and well combined.

Season and Serve

Add black pepper to taste. Serve warm as a side dish or a comforting main dish.
