instructions not clear. ended up growing my own corn field.
That was funny
I laughed too hard at this
🤣🤣
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I'm from North Carolina but living 10 years in Indonesia. I found coarse ground yellow corn in the traditional market that made a nice polenta but not the same as grits as it's too coarse. An Indonesian friend asked about making mozzarella corn dogs but we only have corn starch not corn meal here. So I tried using the dry ingredient blender attachment on my blender and then sifted out the corn meal and the remainder is the perfect consistency for grits. They say a country boy can survive and I think I have proven that statement as not only will I be eating grits for breakfast but I'll be able make corn bread too.
I'm from Denmark and after watching this, I still don't know what grits is.
😂😂
Grits are ground up corn kernels. They are cooked to make something similar to polenta.
It's not just ground corn. Grits are made from hominy, not just plain ground corn.
Gross.
I hope that answers your question.
Yea, it's more than just ground corn. Like the previous guy said it's made from ground hominy corn. You probably don't know what that is either, but somebody thought to take perfectly good corn and soak it in lye. It puffs up and gets funky, making hominy. A traditional dish of my people. It tastes like shit, but you dry it, grind it, boil it, now it's grits. Just add a bit of salt and butter and it's awesome. And don't judge, y'all Scandinavians eat some pretty wierd shit too.
I visited north Florida recently from the UK and had plain grits for breakfast. It was so simple, subtle, easy to eat and filled a hole. I could easily eat that every day. A simple pleasure.
Yalls abysmal breakfast choices were a good 52% of why my ancetors pushed your ancestors shit in the Revolutionary War. A boiled cow turd would be more tasteful than the garbage yall eat
So could I 😋 you can get half decent cornmeal in Asda, they do em both fine and coarse. They're close enough to grits for me anyway.
so, 4 cups of boiling water, and *all* the grits. Thanks, I was wondering what to do with this 50kg bag.
Shittiest how-to video ever...
Lol
I came to the comments to find out how much grits then see the comments lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@jennquiles it's 4.5 to 1 liquid to grits. Liquid should be 50/50, stock or water to diary.
Blessings
I just had bacon, eggs, and grits for breakfast this morning. I am homebound because of a foot injury, but I can still get into the kitchen. The bacon was from Andre's Meats in Earl, Berks County, PA and the eggs were from a local farmer. They were cooked in a Lodge 10" cast iron skillet. I have a few sources for original grits and usually buy 10 pounds at a time. While the grits are cooking, I cook the bacon and eggs.
Use whole milk instead of water, the grits will have a richer taste.
Thank you! Kept finding videos where people did their own original recipe for grits or used INSTANT 5 minute grits. I wanted the base of grits. The original. Thank you.
Folks, bad advice here... water has no flavor; don't use it. Use half Chicken Stock and half Milk. Your Grits will be creamy smooth and full of flavor.
Agree. Gotta have stock and cream.
This is perfect, a simple recipe to cook the grits. I can elaborate on it if I want, but this is the basic how-to-cook-em. When camping, I don't have milk, butter or several other nice additives. But I can follow these simple instructions. I was given a BIG sack of grits, and now I can start getting into them. Thanks!
Just about every region in the South has their own "best way" to make grits, and sometimes different regions of individual states will have disagreements with strongly held opinions. Personally, having had opportunity to sample most, I have to give hats off to the Delta region. From New Orleans up to Memphis, those are the best grits. Some parts of Texas also use the Delta formula. If you want to start an argument in the South, talk about the best way to make grits. Even better, talk about the Southern way to make Chicken and Dumplings; you're sure to get some heated arguments. Interesting that you can find grits in restaurants all across the South, but Chicken and Dumplings, a common Southern family favorite, is a bit more rare in the restaurants. (By the way, I know how my mother made Chicken and Dumplings in the true, authentic, Southern fashion, but regrettably, it's a closely held family secret.) As far as Southern cooking goes, the east coast Southern states seem to make the best spoon bread. I've had bad spoon bread almost everywhere except North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. The trick has to do with exploiting the full absorptive power of the cornmeal. This is done is various ways; my preferred method uses a double boiler to achieve the perfect level of a absorption before things are even put in the oven. Now, we shouldn't get into a discussion of cornbread. I will only say that if you put flour in your cornbread, it isn't a traditional Southern cornbread. These days, that means that many, many Southern cooks have lost sight of the traditional way. My Grandma would put would put a look of total revulsion on her face at the very thought of four in cornbread. She also said that her mother's wood-burning stove made the best cornbread. I never complained about what she was able to achieve in a modern electric oven, though.
So are you saying that there is a brand of grits better than Stone Ground? Name please
So basically grits are like porridge made from corn?
Thats what thought too.
fuzzylumpkin49 yes
I'll have to see if I can get my hands on some.
fuzzylumpkin49 it’s that weird shit Americans give to trick or treaters on Halloween
Elliot Ness No, that's candy corn, which is neither a corn nor a palatable candy.
Oooh, so it's CORN!
Aussie here w' no idea what grits were (USA friend loves it tho), finally found out. Thx
A Brit here, I've heard of Grits before but never knew what they were...we certainly don't have anything like it over here, but I'm curious to try them! Hopefully when I visit Charleston/Atlanta this August!
I've heard polenta comes quite close to it but i'm not sure.
Dejan Djordjevic ...mmhm might be worth a try.
I'm a brit I've always wanted to know what it tastes like
Kev Gee I hope it's better than polenta, that's for sure...
+Snakebloke haha tried it?
i cant believe that so many people commented on a 1 munute video about grits and r arguing about it
LOL truuu
Beach Alien He didn't mention THE AMOUNT OF GRITS to the water. To what all recipes start with and that is the basic in ANY recipe.
NyAiysjah Manson You must be a Yankee, grits are a serious matter. A simple dish, belying infinite complexity. It's a southern thing.
I cant believe you omitted the a and e in "are" even with spell check.
@@Cannibal713 Hey..I'm a Yank..and I ADORE grits
My grandmother worked at the cooking school for 40 years in Birmingham
4 cups of water. How much grits? That is the real question not answered here.
1/4 of grits per each cup of water.
So 4 cups of water for 1 cup of grits?
that’s what i saw on a different video yeah. 4:1
I use chicken stock and half and half....equal to four parts water. It really tastes good
I make cheese grits casserole every week using Bob's Red Mill Grits/Polenta, both white and yellow. Delicious stuff.
Ahhh....put the lid on while simmering to cut time in half! What a game changer to make corn mush!!!!
who's here after watching
my cousin vinny
Here..... here i am .. hand goes up
LOL
no self respecting southerner uses instant grits.
i love how everyone in the court room nods their heads in approval, like damn straight haha
That guy was adorbs!!
me love some grits!
i frigging love grits expeically with some fish !!
NO MILK, NO FLAVOR, SALT AFTERWARDS? 2OMINS?
THIS IS HILARIOUS 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Milk? Who the hell eats grits with milk in it? It should only be butter, salt, and pepper. Nasty
It should be boiled in chicken stock or broth. My opinion 🤷🏾♂️😂
@@spoiledsandi who doesn't? It's amazing with milk. Try watching some of those videos that include milk and then try it yourself. You will be pleasantly surprised at how amazing it tastes
I love it with milk 😋
I made the same thing and it was so good
Grits are awesome. You can find it everywhere.
Yum.
Me, an Australian: I'm going to RUclips what grits are
This video: "were going to cook grits. Cooked grits is made from uncooked grits. What we will need is water, and the grits. Boil the water and add all of your grits"
Me: yahuh, huh, yahuh
I would add just a little bit of butter to the boiling water so that the grits do not stick too much.
I do this with semolina, its done in under 5 mins. Also, no butter, I used cinnamon and sugar
I just watched my cousin vinny. now I want grits.
queef sniffer yum That’s why I’m here!!!! Vinny 😃
Snap!
I like my grits with butter salt and pepper.. tastes like corn on the cob
Interesting
I love how the only thing accurately measured is the water. Everything else is just like "nah, that's not important." Enjoy your watery grits, y'all!
4 cups of water to 1 cup of grits.
Heafty serving of salt and butter if that helps
I add a scramble egg to mine - makes them richer and creamier
wheres joe pesci when you want him to take a look at the menu lol
Thank You so much it really help me with my Breakfast
I love GRITS
Add me to the list of annoyed viewers. The commercial we have to wait through in its entirety takes nearly as long as this brief recipe. And it's a dish, not a "product." Never mind, I'll ask someone's granny.
NEVER, NEVER use water. Use chicken broth, half and half and cook low and slow. No lid. Add liquid as needed. Salt, pepper, cheese, cream cheese added makes for a tasty plate. Or make a gravy with tomatoes.
Are you adding the half and half right as they're done? Like the very last step?
Add half an half with the chicken broth INSTEAD OF water. You get a creamy, savory porridge like dish. You can substitute this side dish for mashed potatoes at dinner. Or of course, eat grits for breakfast.
Water works just fine
Thanks i'll try that
From the south and I've yet to ever make grits. Maybe that'll change today.
i think the most southern thing you can do is
1. Be overly polite to everyone
2. Say.... Maam to everyone and Sir
3. Make a bowl of genuine grits
4. Eat them while watching THE DUKES OF HAZARD haha (original series of course)
5. Read the bible and praise the lord
Yummy grits even I don’t like grits that much
I am willing to do a grits cook off with any one. I have perfected the art of gourmet grits and there is not any one alive that can touch me.
ditto below, still no idea what grits are and that is the reason I switched on, also 4 cups of water and bring to boil, would you not cut the time down drastically if you boiled the water in the kettle first and then brought back to the boil?
Them good grits
Poeple in Mexico have been making grits for thousounds of years.
+wet timguavass I'm from Mexico and I have never heard of them before.
yes .... just use different name. My mom and grandma always made them.
+Alex J it's like the inside of a tamale
And your point?
and needing dictionaries far longer
Were those MAGIC GRITS?! Did you buy it from the guy who sold Jack is Beanstalk Beans?! 😂😂
Lmao "I shot the clerk"
uhhhhhh what was that word.........2 hhhwatttt..............did you say yute............ya 2 yutes..........what is a yute..........oh...........2 "youths" your honor
Maybe the laws of physics, cease to exist on your stove!
Never use faucet water and I like to mince fresh garlic in mines.
Didn't even see the finished product?
Spice Adams brought me here.
I am from the UK and I have never heard of gritts before??
It's kind of like cream of wheat...but it's really thick.
Grits and polenta are almost the same thing
Grits and polenta are almost the same thing
try it you will love it just add salt and butter if you want put cheese
omg r u serious
This receipe is like making a video on how to make toast.
Hi there, like the video, you said 4 cups of water how many cups of grits?
use milk instead of water, and change the grits for oats, change de salt for sugar and then you can have Scottish Porridge
hi, what is the water to grits ratio? 1:1.5? 2:1?
I use 2 cups of water, 1 tsp salt and 5 Tbsp grits (thus ratio is 6.4 to 1. I stir the grits into the cold salted water, bring to a boil (stirring) then cover and reduce heat to simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in butter and enjoy.
Covering the grits is not a gamechanger, dude. My family has been doing that for 50 years.
many people don't know though so he provided them with some good imfo
How much grits? The whole bag? Get it together! Btw I'm from AL, I know how to cook grits.
We can't get grits in australia. It looks great i wish we could.
wow! you missed a very basic point. how much grits do you add?
yes he did
4 cups water or stock to 1 cup grits
Well that was... impressively unhelpful
I am from Taber Alberta Canada running what is the best way to cook grits what is grits
I'm here cause spice adams skits 😔
agan faishal same
That is a lot of salt brother.
Yea he put to much of it lol and its not properly cooked
lol ...indeed
I was reading a book and she always ate grits I had no idea what it was but I kinda guessed it was a sort of bacon or sausage, I was way off 😂
Well...that was easy.
Should we nixtamalize our corn before we make grits or cornmeal or is this only to make corn tortillas?
I WATCHED THIS WITH NO VOLUME AND AM STILL CONFUSED, IS IT SAND I COOK WITH
All Stores Please Lower the price of all Military and Local for all of Brands of Grits Products and Accessories and Production Cost Now That's too much $$ The Whole World Now 🙏🙏🙏
Can you tell me what grits is, I want to try this but I don’t know what to buy. Many thanks. 🇬🇧
Who knew?
What they call _polenta_ in Italy are “grits” in the United States.
Came here after watching My Cousin Vinny movie 😊
4 cups of water to what quantity of grits?
How much grits per the 4 cups of water you recommend
Sadly I have never seen grits before either. Just read about them. In Canada we do have cornmeal.
I heard “4 cups of water” but don’t recall where he said how much grits. I’m guessing one cup? Hmm
I add the salt up front.
I wonder if this is the same as "gris" that we eat in my country. We sprinkle some BenQuick (or Nesquick) and cinnamon on top.
Seriously? Chocolate or cinnamon grits? Hmmm. Cheesy grits rock, but wow.. those are some different flavors you have going there Pootin! 😂
My grandma always soaked her grits overnight before cooking...
The instructions are very clear. It tales nothing to make grits. He was just saying there are different types of grits. The stone ground grits takes longer 2 cook than regular grits (which is what I use) it takes about 4-5 minutes. Everything he said was accurate. Just the cooking time is different for stone ground grits. Which looks yummy
Clear? Watch the video and answer this question… How much grits for 4 cups of water?
@@fiddlinmike😂
@@fiddlinmikeI think you gotta watch another video for that answer😆
your sure belt that 5 minutes
so 4 cups of water...... an how much grits????????Had grits on Nassau for the first time. It was served with tuna and veeeery delicious
Thank you Sir. What about spicing it up... any suitable spice in addition to the salt?
AK,
Chicken bouillon cube into water or milk, boil, add a pat of butter, reduce heat as low as possible just before you add grits, stir continually, as it thickens /cooks. Shut off heat, cover with lid. 10 minutes later add another pat of butter along with crumbled cooked bacon, or slice of ham, sprinkle with sugar ( perferably brown sugar ), drizzle with maple syrup. Add whatever YOU want /like. Cook for yourself ...
black pepper.
The best grits I ever ate had milk in the recipe.
I always use raw milk. Buckwheat grits is really good too.
"....but all my chicks cook grits, and roll a spliff, at the same damn time...you haven't lived long enough, to have a bitch this fine.." - Paak
How much grits in 4 cups of water?
Do you wash the corn before cooking, looked like a lot of husks on top of water . Thanks
it's part of the recipe
Step 1. don't wash before using anything
haha
4 cups of water to how much grits?
What's the difference between this and polenta please? Is polenta more finely ground cornmeal?
about $5.00
palenta is from like yellow corn. grits are from white corn.
Mentions 4 cups of water and no mention as to amount of dry grits to add...
Jamaicans call it cornmeal porridge and make it different..and it would be tastier than this...
One cup of grits added to four cups water?
How many grits?? A cup, a 16 ounce bag? 4 cups water and HOW MANY GRITS??
You need 1 cup of grits. I have no ide as why he didn't include that in the video. I assume that he thought we already knew. Probably got distracted about the give us a tip about covering the pot to reduce cooking time. Although I could be wrong.
There has to be at least another person wanting to know what Grits is because of the movie Shaft from Netflix.
I came here from hells kitchen, they are always talking about grits. To me it looked like mashed potatoes
Grits with buttermilk
so four cups water and how much gritz? you forget basic parts here
Geee Grits😂😂😂…..Golly gosh what an amazing tutorial. It seems as though we Texans love grits. Shut up Alex
With salt ? Am eating that with sugar
