About the Recipe
Blue cheese grits are a rich and savory variation of the Southern classic, featuring creamy, slow-cooked corn grits infused with the pungent, earthy, and salty flavor of crumbled blue cheese.
This decadent side dish or main course offers a bold and distinct flavor profile that complements red meat such as steak or pork chops. It is also a popular base for elaborate dishes like buffalo shrimp or crispy grit cakes. The addition of blue cheese transforms a mild comfort food into a flavorful and luxurious experience.
