Cheddar Cheese Grits image

My favorite way to eat grits. This makes a wonderful side dish to ham, fish and seafood, beef, or most any main course. I bet that even those of you who aren't crazy about grits will enjoy these.:)

Time 30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups water
2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking grits (not instant)
3 cups grated sharp white cheddar cheese (about 12 ounces)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
salt, to taste
hot pepper sauce, to taste (such as Tabasco) (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, add the water and milk. When bubbles just begin to break the surface, slowly add the grits, whisking constantly. Cook, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan, until thickened and cooked, about 7 minutes.
  • Add the cheese and butter and stir just until melted. Remove from the heat. Add salt to taste and hot pepper sauce, if desired. Serve immediately.
