Was hugely redneck back in the day, somewhat better now.

Yes please!
Great with bacon and eggs!
Perfect foil for the salty bacon and savory egg. Yum. Yum. Yum!

Cheese Grits are even better.

AND shrimp N grits bubba gump!

Must cook grits, NOW

my way to find them. They are better than hash browns. Only time I even think about eating grits is at a Waffle House or something. Have never cooked them at home.

They are good before a long hike if loading up on carbs. Also good for those needing folate. (Yeah, I looked all that up, having never read about grits.)

It’s not something I would typically seek, however. I do like fried cornmeal mush occasionally.

Grits and butter. That simple.

With a dollop of butter and a few shakes of pepper-makes a great side to eggs and bacon!!

And I say that as a Southerner, born and raised.

Give me biscuits and gravy any day...

Butter and a little salt. That’s all I need.

butter, salt and an over-easy fried egg mmmmm

All my life

midwinter warmer upper 😁

With red-eye gravy and country ham.

Haven't had red eye gravy in a minute!
Burgess Ham from California, MO. Wonderful ham to eat with redeye gravy!

Grits great foil because other so salty.

👅 mouth waterin stuff right there

I tried them for the first time only a few years ago while in the South, and they were fine! The waitress heard my accent and offered to substitute them when I ordered breakfast, but I'm glad that I didn't do it. Certainly no worse than most other carbs imo!

and bad grits are still OK.

My Mom was from the South, but we grew up in the Northeast and I never had grits until a trip to New Orleans when I was 17.

First time I had them, I LOVED them, and I was all like "you were holding out on me!" to my Mom when I got home. (She hated them so never cooked them.)

With scrambled mixed in and bacon.
Got me thinking, "I can do that whole thing in 30min" hmm..
