I'm from ohio and I had never heard of grits and shrimp. But it sounded so good when a friend mentioned it to me that I had to investigate. After looking at several recipes, I decided to try to make my own version of this delicacy. I let my teenage son (Little Chef Berry) taste it and he begged me to make more after he devoured the remains. I think I might be on to a new favorite any time dish. Ingredients:
