Grits

Biscuit

Method

Grits

  1. 1

    Cook the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of grits and 1 tsp of salt. Reduce heat to low and stir frequently until the grits are thick and creamy, about 20-25 minutes.

  2. 2

    Finish the Grits

    Once cooked, stir in 2 tbsp of butter and 1 cup of cheddar cheese until melted and combined. Keep warm.

Eggs

  1. 3

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Crack 4 large eggs into the skillet.

  2. 4

    Season and Cook

    Sprinkle with 1 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of black pepper. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks are your desired doneness, about 4-5 minutes for sunny side up.

Bacon

  1. 5

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook 8 strips of bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Flip halfway through for even cooking. Drain on paper towels.

Biscuit

  1. 6

    Prepare the Biscuit Dough

    Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). In a large bowl, mix together 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tbsp of baking powder, and 1 tsp of salt. Cut in 0.5 cups of butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  2. 7

    Add Liquids and Bake

    Stir in 1 cup of milk until just combined. Turn the dough onto a floured surface, knead gently, and roll to 1-inch thickness. Cut into circles and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
