Smoked Sausages and Cheese Grits Recipe

Recipe By Melissas Southern Style Kitchen

Stone ground grits are hands down the gold standard. That said, they take much longer to cook than quick cooking grits and are sometimes left off the menu due to that. When there's time, go for stone ground they're amazing. When time is an issue, it's perfectly acceptable to use quick cooking grits instead. Let me clarify by saying quick cooking, not instant grits. Cooked properly they form a delicious base for this recipe and many others.
