Method

Cooking Grits

  1. 1

    Prepare the Liquid

    In a large saucepan, bring the water and milk to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add Grits

    Once the liquid reaches a boil, slowly whisk in the grits to prevent lumps. Reduce heat to low.

  3. 3

    Cook the Grits

    Cover and cook the grits on low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes or until thickened.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Seasoning

    Once the grits are cooked, remove from heat and stir in butter, sharp cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper until the cheese is melted and the mixture is creamy.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate the Grits

    Spoon the cheesy grits into serving bowls.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Top with chopped green onions, crispy bacon bits, and a splash of hot sauce, if desired.
