Southern Grits Casserole



Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 16 servings

  • 6 cups water

  • 2 cups uncooked grits

  • 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

  • ½ cup butter, cut into pieces, divided

  • 1 pound ground pork sausage

  • 12 large eggs

  • ½ cup milk

  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a large baking dish.

  2. Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan; stir in grits. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until liquid has been absorbed, about 5 minutes. Mix in 2 cups Cheddar cheese and 1/2 of the butter until melted.

  3. Cook sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and add to grits mixture.

  4. Whisk eggs and milk together in a bowl. Pour into the skillet used to cook the sausage. Lightly scramble eggs over medium-low heat, then mix into grits mixture.

  5. Pour grits mixture into the prepared baking dish. Dot with remaining butter, sprinkle with remaining 1 cup Cheddar, and season with salt and pepper.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 30 minutes.
