BBQ Shrimp and Grits Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Slowly add the stone ground grits while stirring to prevent lumps. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced Andouille sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the shrimp, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt. Cook until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, about 4-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Combine and Serve

    Once the grits are fully cooked, stir in War Eagle cheese until melted and creamy. Serve the cheesy grits topped with the BBQ shrimp and sausage mixture. Drizzle with lemon juice and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
