• 1 cup grated cheese
• salt, fresh cracked pepper and crushed red pepper flakes to taste

Preparation

• Bring milk, butter or oil, salt pepper and crushed red pepper to boil.
• Add grits and reduce heat to a simmer.
• Stir often and until grits are tender and thickening.
• This will take 30- 40 minutes. Stir in cheese and enjoy.

Comments

• Serves 4-6
• Serve for brunch with poached eggs or dinner with your favorite steak.
• We use stone ground grits which are much coarser and thus take longer to cook, if you are using quick grits you will need to shorten your cooking time
• I like to use a sharp, flavorful cheese like Simetons Four Year Old Cheddar or Locust Grove's La Mancha, but any of your favorites will work.
