This sure does make me hungry!   Was in Savanah Ga for a couple days this week and had some very tasty shrimp and grits.

Glad this thread came back up.   GAB did you ever try to make those grit corn meal rolls in maple syrup?

No, cause I do not have any grits.

Ive only eaten grits a few times in my life, not a popular thing here I guess? The corn bread however, I eat it like it's going outa style!! I mix strips of green chili in the batter and too with a bit of cheese. Cast iron of course.

Here liberal politicians are referred to as grits, completely inedible. ;D I really like corn bread with maple syrup.

I like them with more than a smidgen of butter, salt and pepper. She's trying to cut back my butter and salt rations, the new eclectic pepper grinder got here today, it even has a headlight :D. Not sure what's gonna happen when they declare pepper bad.

Grits are good. I don't often make them at home, but I look forward to traveling south, and having someone else make them for me. Makes them more special when I don't have them all the time. I'm /just/ outside the grit belt, so I don't have to travel far. Salt/pepper/butter is all they need.

I don't have them very often, but when I do I like a glob of butter and some salt & pepper!

Lynn's pic in post 53 looks like something I'd eat!

Chuck,

   They should have already been properly salted during the cooking process but it is okay to add a little more if you like. I never add pepper but nothing wrong with that. The gob of butter is the proper additive! You have that down pat!

That French toast doesn't looks good, but they're going to have to cook that egg. Not sure why they want to charge extra for all that extra stuff, grits by themselves provide plenty of traction on ice just the way they are.

If you are looking for bacon you need to consider TONY'S in Birch Run, MI.
They cook a lot of bacon every day.

So there is more than one way to eat grits? I never knew :D...butter, salt and pepper, and whatever else that "leaks" from the surroundings (sirup, jam, bacon fat). (And BTW - yellow grits instead of white, though this is disputed in my family.)

WV Sawmiller

  I'm with you on the yellow vs white grits being better. I am the same with corn meal or tortilla chips. Yellow has more flavor.

   BTW - where do you find them in Norway? I worked a project in Kristiansand for 2 years and never saw any there. I finally found oatmeal but it was over in the baking area instead of the cereal section.

I don't find them in Norway. I stock up whenever visiting family in N.C. The security folks at the airport in Charlotte say they see grits in people's bags every day.  :D

I am not surprised, but they do have Rommegrot and I find that much better (apologies to my friends of the southern persuasion). Can't get that stateside and I miss it a lot. It's been too long.
