I've only ever had good grits south of the Mason Dixon Line.... Mom and Pop diners are usually the best bet I've found when traveling.

Love the grits at Cracker Barrel !!!!
Funniest thing............ I always get a Grandpa's Breakfast at Cracker Barrel. It includes a bowl of grits. South of the Mason-Dixon, "And here's your grits !!". Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana........... "You want your grits with that ???". New York, Michigan, Wisconsin............. "Excuse me, Miss. But Where's my grits ???".

I had a girlfriend in college from up north for a while and she asked me to cook her a grit. I did. She had a hell of a time finding it on her plate to eat it.

Being a Northern boy, I'd never had a grit until my late 20's on a business trip to Atlanta. Wasn't that impressed with them at the time but do like them now. Cook up a batch a few times a month. Vacuum sealed 20# in mylar bags for the coming apocalypse.

We love grits down south, anyone else like them? We have them with bacon and eggs for breakfast I love grits. What bugs me is most people forget the salt. The salt really brings out the flavor. Throw in some pancake syrup and you have a tasty addition to any breakfast. kwg

Grits are NOT cereal, they are a potato substitute/equivalent. Cook 'em low and slow in salted water, and if they get too thick, add a bit of milk. Serve 'em with butter and pepper or some cheese. I like to add just the tiniest smidge of garlic powder to mine - and a dash of hot sauce goes good, too. To make a meal of grits, cook as described and stir in some diced ham or crumbled bacon, two eggs cooked with runny yolks, and top with a pinch of chives.

Sunday morning breakfast at our house is eggs, yeast-leavened waffles (batter made the day before and rises all night in the refrigerator), Danny's maple syrup, bacon and/or ham and grits. I make a big pot of grits with sharp cheddar and gouda cheese mixed in...make enough so I can have some every morning the rest of the week if I want to (I usually do.)
When we moved to South Carolina I told my wife she'd have to stop putting milk and syrup on her grits or she'll get us kicked out. She's happy to eat them properly now. Every good restaurant in Charleston has their own shrimp and grits recipe, they're all a little different and they're all good.

I don't trust anybody that doesn't like dogs or grits. I must agree.
