Steps:

  • Place the milk, water, and salt into a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once the milk mixture comes to a boil, gradually add the cornmeal while continually whisking. Once all of the cornmeal has been incorporated, decrease the heat to low and cover. Remove lid and whisk frequently, every 3 to 4 minutes, to prevent grits from sticking or forming lumps; make sure to get into corners of pot when whisking. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes or until mixture is creamy.
  • Remove from the heat, add the pepper and butter, and whisk to combine. Once the butter is melted, gradually whisk in the cheese a little at a time. Serve immediately.

2 cups whole milk
2 cups water
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 cup coarse ground cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 ounces sharp Cheddar, shredded

Roasted Garlic Jalapeno Cheese Grits image

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly butter a 2-quart oven-safe dish.
  • Cut the top off of the garlic head to expose the garlic. Put the head on a piece of aluminum and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and close. Place the garlic into the oven and roast until soft, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and open to cool slightly before using.
  • Bring the chicken stock, 1 1/2 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt to a rolling boil in a large pot over high heat. Add the grits and stir well with a whisk. Cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter. Add the eggs while whisking quickly, and fold in 3 tablespoons of the roasted garlic, the cheeses, jalapenos, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and white pepper. Once the grits are thoroughly combined and smooth, transfer to the prepared baking dish and cover with foil.
  • Bake for 1 hour 20 minutes, then remove foil and cook 10 minutes longer to brown the top.

1/4 cup butter, unsalted, plus extra for greasing the dish
1 head garlic
Olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus extra for roasted garlic
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper, plus extra for roasted garlic
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
3/4 cup grits, not quick style
2 eggs, well beaten
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, shredded

3 tablespoons pickled, drained and minced jalapeno
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Cheesy Roasted Garlic Grits image

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Trim the top off the garlic, drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Seal the garlic in aluminum foil, place on a baking sheet and roast until the cloves are golden and super soft, 20 to 30 minutes. Squeeze the cloves out, add a pinch of salt and smear with a knife on a flat surface to form a paste. Reserve.
  • Bring the stock to a simmer. Slowly add the grits in small batches, whisking the whole time. Cook, whisking often, until the grits are creamy and tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove the grits from the heat and stir in the roasted garlic paste, white Cheddar and cream. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Carefully ladle the grits into the ramekins on a baking sheet. Top each ramekin with a slice of yellow Cheddar so the slice just comes over the sides of the ramekin. Bake until the cheese is gooey and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Top with freshly ground black pepper and serve!

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
4 slices yellow Cheddar
1 head garlic
Olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 cups chicken stock
1 cup stone-ground grits
1/2 cup grated white Cheddar
