or al dente? I don’t think I could ever even think about making a roux without oil and flour, peppers onions and celery. Who in the world would put tomatoes in a roux??
WT17 is wrong with some people?

Just made me a breakfast last night. Grits w/ cheddar cheese, 6 strips of thick bacon, 3 fried eggs, 4 pcs. of toast w/ real butter and a nice cup of Black Rifle light roast coffee (the one with the black Lab on it). I was in heaven for about 30 minutes!

I do love a chicken sauce piquant made with a roux and plenty tomatoes in it.

Cheesy grits are great with some short ribs or something.

We make our own grits out of rice with a grist mill. I make them with just butter and salt and they are incredible.
Grits from rice?

Two things with grits. Don’t use instant. Cook them in milk, not water. Both are game changers. Whatever you do after that , garlic cheese etc is secondary.

Perfect Answer - I don't eat the damned things despite being raised in a good GOD fearing Southern Baptist home.
My wife is always bugging me about Cracker Barrel and breakfast. I don’t like going there because they force those damn grits on you. Last time I went I asked if I could get a biscuit instead of grits. Nope. Waitress tried to tell me the grits are free so no substitutions. It’s listed in the menu item description so that means it’s part of the price. I’m not paying for something I don’t want. So I don’t go there any longer. My wife now goes to Cracker Barrel when she visits her family without me.

If you tried them you wouldn’t go back to the others. We’ve given bags to our friends and they call the next week wanting more. Best grits they ever had.

ETA. You do realize that most of the time when you have shrimp and grits those are rice grits

Lots of butter… over scrambled eggs.
