Step by Step Method

Step 1

Be sure to use the deepest pot you have, even when doing half the recipe. The mixture tends to boil over dramatically when the grits are added.

Step 2

In a saucepan, combine water, half-and-half, salt and white pepper and bring to a boil.

Step 3

Slowly pour grits into boiling water while whisking the entire time.

Step 4

(Watch out for splattering; mixture is very hot.)

Step 5

Reduce to low heat and continue to whisk often, until thick and completely smooth, about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Add cheese and stir gently until cheese melts.

Step 7

Whisk again to combine.

Step 8

Turn heat off and allow grits to rest 5 minutes.

Step 9

Add butter and stir until completely smooth, silky and shiny.

Wow! So very close to the restaurant's!!! These are creamy, cheesy, and delicious! I followed the recipe exactly, except used a bit more salt than called for (and I'm not a "salty" person!). This will be my go-to grits recipe from here on out. Thanks, Dee! UPDATE: these are even better the next day. Cheesier!
