Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 4 to 6 slices bacon chopped
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 cup yellow stone ground grits not instant!
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup to 1 cup shredded cheese

Instructions

Directions:

  1. Saute the bacon, onion and garlic.

  2. Add the grits. Stir to coat.

  3. Add the milk, broth, and butter. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook for about 20 to 25 minutes - stirring once or twice.

  4. Taste test. If you want your grits to be more smooth, add more liquid and cook them a little bit longer.

  5. The last step is adding shredded cheese. I had a small hunk of Cotswold cheese in the fridge - in it went. Grits. Done.
