USMC2602 Campfire Regular U Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 2,917 Kansas/Colorado	Here's how I make it: 6 C chicken broth 2 C uncooked quick-cooking grits (I don't think brand matters) 1 t salt 1 t pepper 4 T butter 3 C shredded Colby/Jack 2 lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined Juice of 1/2 fresh lemon 1 T Worcestershire sauce 1/4 C chopped fresh parsley 12 green onions, chopped 4 cloves garlic, minced 12 slices bacon, chopped Bring chicken broth to a boil over medium-high heat, stir in grits. Cook, stirring occasionally for 5-7 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat, stir in next 4 ingredients. Set aside, keep warm. Cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, remove bacon from pan. Cook shrimp in same pan over medium heat 3 minutes or until almost pink, stirring occasionally. Add lemon juice, Worcestershire, parsley, green onions, and garlic. Stir in bacon. Spoon grits onto individual plates or into shallow bowls, top with shrimp mixture. Serves 4-6. With a good side salad and a cold beer or nice glass of wine, it's pretty hard to beat. Can't vouch for how "authentic" the recipe is, but it works for me.

Mannlicher Campfire Kahuna Joined: Nov 2003 Posts: 67,693 N. Central Florida, and Miami	been real busy, traveling and getting ready for some canoe camping trips. First of all, don't listen to a damn thing anyone says about grits, if'n they are not born, or at least, raised, in the South. The folks in Charleston seem to like their shrimp and grits fixed with the grits first, and the sauteed shrimp and stuff poured on top. I am more attuned to Florida style, where you make the cheese grits, and just before they are done, you add in the raw shrimp, and let the heat of the grits cook 'em. Top with a mix of fresh scallions and curley Parsley, and butter. Good fresh shrimp will let you do that, and you don't have to mask the real flavor with a lot of extraneous stuff. Sam......

I'll be going to town when the weather breaks and get me a 5 pound box of 16/20 shrimp and LET 'R' RIP. ML, I'll put the deed to the farm back in the lock box later today.

Personally, I'd just go with whatever brand of grits your store carries. Much more important that you use good (fresh) shrimp, butter, bacon, and cheese than the brand of grits. Oh, hell yeah.
