Ingredients
  • INGREDIENTS – Grits
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
  • 2 cloves garlic – finely diced
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup grits (not instant, we recommend stone ground)
  • INGREDIENTS - Shrimp
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 4 slices of bacon, finely diced
  • 4 cloves garlic diced
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 pound Shrimp
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons seafood or vegetable bouillon

Directions
  1. Heat the water, milk, old bay, garlic, and butter in a medium saucepan until right before boiling. Add grits and cook for 6-8 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a separate skillet or wok, melt the butter and sauté the bacon, garlic, and onion.
  3. When the garlic and onion are lightly browned and transparent, add flour to make a basic roux. Stir until fully mixed.
  4. Add shrimp and 1/4 cup water, cover and simmer. When shrimp are partially cooked, add the remainder of the water, Old Bay, and bouillon.
  5. Allow to continue to simmer until gravy thickens.
  6. Serve 3/4 cup cooked grits in a bowl and cover with Shrimp in gravy.

Can you replace the bacon with tasso ham?

Absolutely. The idea is just that you make a very flavorful gravy that works with the shrimp. Enjoy!

I added diced sausage to add to the flavor and make the servings go further. I also omitted the bouillon.
