I have found that when I cook fish, I cook grits at the same time and serve the fish over the grits. I add some pepper jack cheese to the grits. When I start the water for the grits, I reduce the amount of water by 1/4 cup and replace that with milk for a more creamy base. It makes a whole new presentation for grits and you can fool the Yankees telling them its polenta.

BayView....that sounds good....you might even get me to eat them fixed that way!!

My favorite way to eat grits is to make a big bowl of 'em, add enough butter so they are yellow, add three scrambled eggs, salt, pepper, & bacon bits (OK, real bacon makes me want to smoke a cigarette afterwards ). Stir very well. A big glass of sweet tea & some good cartoons to watch (Dexter's Laboratory!) - I'm in hog heaven.
The only thing to beat that is fresh black-eyed peas & cornbread. Well, there is one other thing ...... :twisted:

Bayview, old southern favorite. we always had grits with fish at my house when I was a young'n. fried fish that is, not with fish on the grill.

I'm with you. Shrimp and grits is AWESOME, whether in Charleston, Savannah, or wherever.
Grits - southern polenta.

My seven year old sister sings it all day too. Lately I have been making grits with bacaon, pepperjack cheese, scallion and oven roasted poblano pepper to go with fish. I use 75% chicken brotk and 25% cream or milk instead of water. It's great!

If they could put a grits smell in an aerosol can,you would have a GREAT yankee repellant!

That's how I prove I've assimilated, I eat grits and actually like them. Even eat them plain with eggs.

I use instant grits for this.

Mix grits with water as directions on the box but use less water. Make a thick "batter." Spoon grits into hot bacon grease and flatten.

This will make your tongue slap your brains out.
