Steps:
- Bring water and 1 pinch of salt to a boil in a saucepan and slowly mix in the grits, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer grits until tender and smooth, about 20 minutes; stir often. Set aside and keep warm.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir tasso ham until crisp. Stir in onion and green bell pepper and cook until onion is translucent, about 4 minutes. Lightly stir the shrimp with the vegetables and olive oil just until pink, 30 to 45 seconds; remove shrimp from pan and set aside.
- Pour white wine into the skillet and stir, dissolving any browned bits of food in the bottom of the skillet; slowly add the cream, reduce heat to low, and simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Divide the grits onto 2 serving plates and line the edge of each plate with 10 shrimp. Pour cream sauce over grits and sprinkle each serving with chopped green onion tops.

SHRIMP AND GRITS WITH LOUISIANA BBQ SAUCE
Steps:
- For the grits: Combine 4 cups water, the cream, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce and salt, and bring to a boil. In a medium bowl combine the grits, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper. Add the dry ingredients to the boiling liquid, whisking vigorously. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 45 minutes. Whisk regularly, every 3 to 5 minutes, so the grits do not stick and burn.
- Remove from the heat and add the butter, whisking until it's completely incorporated into the grits.
- For the BBQ sauce: Combine the oil and butter and melt over medium heat. Add the paprika, rosemary, oregano, salt, black pepper and chipotle, and bring to simmer for 15 minutes. Add the garlic and simmer 5 minutes, not letting the garlic brown. Remove from the heat and add the lemon juice. Strain and discard the solids (they will burn if you cook the shrimp with them).
- For the corn: Melt the butter in a medium saute pan and add the corn. Add the sugar and some salt and pepper and cook until the corn is bright yellow and just cooked through.
- Pour the BBQ sauce in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan and add the shrimp. Cook, stirring regularly until firm to the touch, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Divide the grits among four serving bowls and add 5 shrimp per bowl. Drizzle some BBQ sauce over the grits and sprinkle some corn on top. Garnish each bowl with a slice of lemon and then serve.

SLOW-COOKER GRITS
There is nothing cozier than eating a steaming bowl of grits with your favorite toppings, whether savory or sweet. Stone-ground grits have much more flavor than the regular variety, but they need a little more time and attention to cook them on the stovetop. This recipe skips all the extra work by using a slow cooker, yet still delivers a batch of deliciousness for a crowd.

Steps:
- Add the grits to a medium bowl and cover with water by 2 inches. Stir gently and allow the grits to settle for about 2 minutes. Skim off any bits of grits that have floated to the surface, then drain them in a fine-mesh sieve, discarding the liquid.
- Add the grits to a 6-quart slow-cooker insert with 7 cups of water and 1 tablespoon salt and stir to combine. Cover and cook until the grits are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid but are still loose enough to pour off a spoon, about 2 hours on high or 4 hours on low. Continue to cook, covered, up to 30 minutes more to achieve a thicker consistency.
- Add the milk and butter, stirring to fully combine. Serve immediately with desired toppings, or cover and keep warm for up to 2 hours.
CAROLINA SHRIMP & CHEDDAR GRITS
