While grits are cooking take melted butter and pour into one of the ramekins. Swirl it around to coat inside, pour excess into the next ramekin. Coat the inside with bread crumbs, pouring out excess, repeat with other ramkins. When grits have finished, add jalpeno, garlic, shrimp to grits. Once the shrimp have cooked add chesse and remove from heat. Use the heat of the grits to melt the chesse, this allows the grits to cool down for the eggs.
