Tips
- Go with slow motion while making this recipe. Keep the heat low and make each item, like grits, gravy, and shrimp, slowly. It will get you a good result.
- Low heat helps to get in a silky texture.
- You can serve the leftover gravy with other side dishes. This way, if you have shrimp or grits left (any one of them), just serve them with any other dish. It will be great not to waste.
- Adding heavy cream, milk, or buttermilk will thicken the grits nicely.
- There are no specific rules that grits should be thick, it can be runny too. Everything depends on your preference.
