INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

* Quick Grits - 4 servings or more if you are going to have more people.
Since the recipe is really just flavoring for the grits, it shouldn't be
too difficult to modify for more/less people.
** chicken stock equivalent to what to the water required for making the
amount of grits you need.
*** - habaneros would be good here, but I have to watch the heat level for
my wife and daughters.
Prepare the grits as per the directions on the package, using the chicken
stock instead of water. As the grits are simmering, stir in the remaining
ingredients. After the grits have been prepared as per the packaging, pour
them into a pie pan that has been sprayed lightly with cooking oil (so they
don't stick). Allow them to cool and set up. Kinda like concrete. The
starch will cause the grits to form a shallow 'pie' and be pretty stiff.
Pop the 'pie' out onto a cutting board and slice into wedges. Brush lightly
with butter/olive oil to prevent sticking on the grill. I use chile oil. On
the grill I usually use a special insert that is a grating the covers the
normal rack, but has small holes. 'Grill' the grits for about 3-4 minutes
per side, until they are good and hot (reheated). Be careful not to scorch
them. Just after I turn them for the first time, I like to lower the coals
down as far as they go so that cooking slows significantly, then toss some
wet hickory chips on to the coals, close the lid and 'smoke' them for 2 -3
minutes.
