Welcome to 30 Days of Grits, Day 19!

I don’t have a name for this recipe, but it comes from my son-n-law (who is a fabulous cook!) so I’m simply going to call them Brandon’s SHRIMP & GRITS:

2-3 cups grits (real, do not use instant)

1 cup heavy cream

2-3 cups milk

1 pound bacon

1 stick butter

1 pound deveined shrimp (I prefer using pre-cooked shrimp but the original recipe calls for raw shrimp that you cook in the bacon grease)

Soak the grits in milk for several hours.

Cook the bacon on the stovetop, keep the bacon fat/grease in pan. Use that as the base to cook and/or reheat the shrimp.

Cook grits in butter and heavy cream. Add bacon, seasoning, shrimp on top and serve.

You can now pre-order NO GRITS NO GLORY at these vendors.

Hi all and welcome to 30 Days of Grits, Day 10!

Today I am pointing you toward my Pinterest board set up for NO GRITS, NO GLORY where I have collected a series of grits recipes (thanks, Cristy W!) and photos.

FYI, in order to respect copyright, the Pinterest board does not “list” the recipe but the photo of the grits links to the author’s site where the recipe can be found. I wouldn’t want to copy recipes here without permission and this is a fair way to share the recipe while giving all due credit.

So today’s great recipe is Cheesy Shrimp & Grits Casserole

Looks yummy so check it out!
