Ingredients:

Serving

8 cups milk, divided
1 tbsp salt
2 cups uncooked stone-ground white grits
1 cup unsalted butter
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tsp dried dill weed , thyme , or sage or a combination of the three (or 2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs)
2 cups (8 oz) shredded cheddar , gruyere , or swiss cheese or a combination of the three, divided
6 slices bacon , cooked until crisp and crumbled

Directions:

Combine 6 cups milk and salt in a large, heavy saucepan; cook over medium-high heat just until milk starts to boil. Gradually whisk in grits and butter. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 20 to 25 minutes or until thick, stirring often.
Preheat oven to 350°. Remove grits from heat; add remaining 2 cups milk, stirring to cool grits mixture. Stir in eggs, herbs, and 1 cup cheese. Pour grits mixture into a lightly greased 15 x 10 baking dish; top with remaining 1 cup cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45 minutes or until bubbly. Sprinkle crumbled bacon on top of casserole; serve immediately.
