1
Prepare the Grits
In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Stir in the grits and salt, then reduce the heat to low.
2
Cook the Grits
Cook the grits for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are thickened and creamy.
3
Add Milk and Cheese
Once the grits are cooked, stir in the milk, cheddar cheese, butter, and black pepper. Mix until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined.
4
Serve
Remove from heat and serve hot as a side dish or base for shrimp, sausage, or other toppings.
