Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 tsp of salt.

  2. 2

    Cook the Grits

    Slowly whisk in the grits, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the grits are thick and creamy.

  3. 3

    Add Butter

    Once the grits are cooked, stir in the 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter until melted and well combined.

  4. 4

    Cheese It Up

    Remove the pot from heat and fold in the 1 cup of Cabot cheddar cheese until melted and fully incorporated.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Spoon the grits into bowls and enjoy warm. You can add extra cheese on top if desired.
