Pimento cheese grits have all of the fabulous flavor of pimento cheese, with only the lazy boil and wait prep of classic Southern grits.

Grits have always been a favorite food in my house. I’ve been meaning to share some of my favorite grits recipes for a while, so I’m starting with my most recent favorite: Pimento Cheese Grits.

This recipe is SUPER easy and contrary to what you’d expect, does not actually contain any of the classic mayonnaise-y cream cheese-y stuff ( although if you want a recipe for that, I’ve got one and it’s gooooooood. ) Don’t worry though, a hit of butter makes sure you are still clogging your arteries just a little when you eat these grits.

One note about making grits: Do not, I repeat DO NOT, use quick, instant, or any other sort of shortcut grits. I refuse to be held responsible if you make bad ingredient decisions and ruin my recipe with your bad choices.

What are good grits to buy, you ask?? There are quite a few great grits producers, but as a general rule: Good Grits Come in Cloth Bags. Look for brands like Anson Mills or Geechie Boy Mill ( which actually come in a paper bag, but it is the ONLY exception!), both of which you can buy online if you can’t find them in the store.
