 |  Grits are a staple in a southern home. They are very versatile. from plain to cheese to cakes and my husbands favorite tomato grits. I've even seen a few in Florida eat them like cream of wheat with milk and sugar. There is a secret to making perfect grits. |
2 cups water 1/3 cup quick grits
1/2-1 tsp of salt fresh ground pepper
butter
Place water in a small pot and bring water to a boil. Sprinkle grits into boiling water and stir immediately until combined and no lumps. Sprinkle salt & pepper to taste. You will cook them for about 20 minutes. THEN and only then add your butter at the end.
