There is nothing more Southern than a big ol\u2019 bowl of Grits! Every local joint in the south has their own version of this classic dish, so we\u2019re adding our recipe to the mix too. Our Southern Cheesy Grits stick very true to the traditional recipe. Mix Chicken Stock and Water with the Grits then finish it off with Butter and Cheese!

What we love about grits is they are so unbelievably simple to make, and are an awesome substitute for some of the more typical carbs you would expect on a dinner plate such as Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes, or Bread. Grits are a really hearty dish that will fill the hungriest of appetites, however they don\u2019t leave you feeling really heavy like some other carb sides will. Perfect for those warm Southern summers!

Sharp Cheddar Cheese and Parmesan Cheese make for Tasty, Cheesy Grits!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For our Southern Cheesy Grits Recipe, we\u2019re going with two types of Cheese. Sharp Cheddar Cheese and Parmesan Cheese. The quantities are basically 3 parts Cheddar to one part Cheddar, so the overwhelming flavor in the grits will be from the Cheddar

The Sharper the Cheddar cheese you can get, the better. Try to find some lovely Aged Cheddar Cheese if you can get your hands on it. The Sharpness adds a great zing to the grits, giving them a lot more depth of flavor we find

Parmesan Cheese may not be as traditional, but it is a fantastic addition to the recipe. You won\u2019t get that melty quality of cheese, that\u2019s what the Cheddar brings. However, the Parmesan Cheese will bring a lovely richness, tang, and nuttiness to the dish
