Ingredients for Brisket & Grits

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Stir in the stone ground grits and salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until the grits are thick and creamy.

  2. 2

    Incorporate Cheese and Butter

    Once the grits are cooked, stir in the gouda cheese, butter, and heavy cream. Mix well and season with black pepper to taste. Keep warm.

  3. 3

    Make Corn Maque Choux

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the corn kernels and garlic, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until corn is tender.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the smoked brisket to the corn mixture and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through. Add sliced green onions just before serving.

  5. 5

    Serve

    To serve, spoon the creamy gouda grits onto a plate and top with the brisket and corn maque choux mixture. Enjoy!
