When we have our monthly “Elder’s meeting” at church it includes a pair of the elders making breakfast for all of us. Whenever Commer volunteers he makes a big pot of his grits, which everyone loves. His “secret” is adding Cream of Wheat(CoW) to the grits. I don’t know the percentage of CoW to grits, but it does makes it good. And he always puts in butter while cooking it.
The ‘butter’ is the ‘secret ingredient’. the Cream of Wheat is a head-fake!................
