Servings: persons

7 cups Water
2 teaspoons Salt
2 cups Grits, Stone Ground If You Can Find, Instant Also Works
1/2 cups Butter, Melted
1/2 cups Milk
1 teaspoon Granulated Garlic
1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
1 teaspoon Frank's Hot Sauce
4 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Grated
4 whole Eggs, Beaten

1
Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the salt and slowly whisk in the grits. Be sure and whisk constantly for about 1 minute so there are no lumps. Reduce heat and simmer until well done, about 25 minutes. If you are using instant grits, it won't take as long, about 5 to 7 minutes.
2
Remove from heat and stir in butter, milk, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce. Add the cheese a handful at a time and mix until blended. In a small bowl, crack the eggs and beat well. Take the whisk and add a small amount of the hot grit mixture to the bowl with the eggs and whisk. Pour the eggs a little at a time back into the saucepan with the grits and whisk until blended. Work quickly so you don't end up with pieces of scrambled eggs in your grits!
3
Pour into a greased 9x13-inch dish and bake at 350u00b0F for 1 hour. If the top is browning too quickly, cover loosely with foil.

Enjoy!
