Eating grits…

[Goldeneagle]

I grew up in S. Dallas and we were eating grits back in the 60's. Minus the uncooked egg of course.

Ate them lots of ways but my favorite is jalapeno cheese grits

had bacon jalape?o cheese grits a while back in shrimp and grits and they were excellent!

I’m from San Antonio and never ate them growing up but both my parents were from up north. I’ve eaten them since then and never really saw the appeal in them unless you added a bunch of stuff to them to make them palatable. Now deep fried? That’s a different story. That makes them taste good but then again, doesn’t that make most things taste good?
On that note though, unless I’m starving, I’ll never eat them again.

So they are like rice, potatoes, beans……

Everything tastes better when it’s deep fried!

Grits, sardines, and Louisiana hot sauce!

Grits are only as good as whatever you put in them. I can’t imagine eating hash browns, or mashed potatoes, and ever wanting grits again.

Saw this thread and made some with cheese and bacon. So good.

Everything?

Phffphh…!

[PYBUCK]

Never ate them and never plan on eating them.

You are correct. Just like your mashed potatoes, you don’t just mash a tater, you add milk, butter and seasonings. You don’t just bake a tater, you bust it open and add things, same as grits. They’re not bad with butter, better with eggs, cheese, bacon or whatever your liking is. Now hash browns, they get schooched to the side of the plate so they don’t get mixed in with the goof food.

They’ve always been breakfast food up until about 30 years ago when my then to be in laws served them at dinner with fresh fried fish! I’ll eat them at any meal.

Shrimp -n- Grits is my goto at a Cajun food joint. So good!

Plain taters>plain grits, 100% of the time. Grits are obsolete filler to those with taste buds.

By all means though, knock yourself out!
