Grits Casserole

[jjmk98k]

Well, has anyone made this and if so, how was it?

and why the objection to Heinz??? the ONLY Ketchup...

[DouginUtah]

Heinz = John Kerry's wife.  :D

[jjmk98k]

Oh Dang, i forgot about that..... but growing up outside of Pittsburgh... its the ONLY brand for us...

now I'm bummed.

[Tom]

You can use Hunt's and still have a big "H" on the table.   :D

[Jeff]

We use Brooks Catsup, although at times it is hard to find.  It's a Tangy catchup.  I buy Brooks catsoup mostly because it works best in recipes. I personally use very little ketchup as a condiment.

Besides, they have the biggest bottle.

Hum... now I have to find a new Ketchup... Hunts... eeww

Id rather just dunk stuff in BBQ sauce, some flavor that way!


Jeff, is the Brooks a local thing? I never saw that brand before...but i see they sell online....

[Jeff]

I think it must be pretty regional, even around here its hit and miss who has it.
A link on that same website might give a little more info

thecfarm,

It is obvious from your post that you harbor a deep seated grits curiosity :D.

[Gary_C]

But curiosity is what killed the cat.   :

Be careful here thecfarm, they might be trying to do you in with some of them grits. Those secret societies can be devious.   :D :D

[thecfarm]

Been singled out before on here.   ;D  I'm ready for the next onslaught.  :D 

[WDH]

Hey, you are my favorite grits basher  :D  :D.

[MFinity]

Guess all the rest of the northern guys with taste buds left are afraid to speak up.  :D :D


"Northern guy" here. Still recovering from the shock. 
Maybe when my fingers have stopped twitching so bad...  ;D

[Kas]

Hey, I recognize that catsup bottle.  It's DanG near right in my back yard. Well, it would be if my backyard was five or ten miles deep.

But I do drive by it most every week.

Collinsville, IL.

Brooks no longer processes there, but the town and Brooks, still maintain the bottle.

[Burlkraft]

Beenthere has his own catsup bottle down at The Rox.

I think it's called Melinda's or sumpthin' like that.

He walks in and on the bar without a word being said is a can...no glass...of Diet Pepsi and the bottle of Melinda's  ;D  ;D  ;D

Then Tom says ,"Christine's fan club is here!"

Then we have burgers   

Mmmmmmm burgers......  ;D

[Norm]

Uhhh does Mrs' Beenthere know about Christine....and if she doesn't how much is it worth for me not to say anything. ;D

[Burlkraft]

I don't think Mrs. Beenthere's got anything to worry about.   :  :  :   We just gotta be nice to her so we get some decent service.

Christine may look all cute and innocent, but underneath I'm sure she has a pair of horns and a DanG sharp pitch fork!! teeter_totter teeter_totter

We both feel pretty sorry for Mr. Christine. He was such a good young man too.......

Then of course Beenthere starts pushin' her buttons......... : : :

And I gotta smooth it out  :D :D :D

For the last few days I have been craving Grits Casserole.  Yesterday morning I woke up early and fixed a big pot of grits.   I used two cups.  Then I cooked up some patty deer sausage (from duaghters deer ;D) and broke it up into little chunks.  Then twelve eggs went in with the hot grits.  The sausage chunks were mixed with the gritty eggs, then poured in a casserole dish.  This was topped with grated cheese.  I baked it for 30 minutes at 375.   It may not look good to you.  Let me tell you it tasted great ;D ;D

[WDH]

Now that all those Northern frozen types that are withstanding the big blizzard are snowbound, maybe their grits sensibilities will soften a bit  .

Then again, maybe not  :D.

Fish,

That looks tasty and probably makes DanG crave some fried mullet on the side. 

[fishpharmer]

A nice hot bowl of grits would warm em right up.

I could go for some fresh fried mullet on the side myself.  No mullet here.  Guess I will settle for fried catfish

[Magicman]

All that baby needs is eating..... digin_2

[Jeff]

Yea, I'd have Nooo problem eating on that. 

[sandhills]

Now...what part of that isn't suppose to look good? ???  Hope you all enjoy it, I gotta make me one of those

[Burlkraft]

Mmmmm that look awesome FF   8) 8) 8)

[Norm]

Now that looks darn good James!
