Baked Two-Cheese & Bacon Grits image

In the South, everyone loves three things: bacon, cheese and grits! After playing around with this recipe, I took it to my first family party as a newlywed, and it was a huge hit. This recipe has become a family tradition that I'm sure will be passed down for generations. -Melissa Rogers, Tuscaloosa, Alabama

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups quick-cooking grits
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
1/4 cup creme fraiche
One 4-ounce jar sliced pimentos
4 ounces sharp yellow Cheddar, grated
4 ounces smoked Gouda, grated
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions

Steps:

  • Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a pot. Add the grits, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to the water and cook according to the package instructions. Keep warm and loosen with water or stock to keep from getting too thick.
  • Add the bacon to a small skillet. Cook over medium heat until the bacon is crispy and the fat is rendered, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon and any bacon grease to a large bowl and let cool slightly. Stir in the creme fraiche and pimentos until all is combined and smooth. Add the Cheddar and Gouda and stir until the cheeses are coated and the whole mixture is cohesive.
  • Reheat the grits until they are very hot, adding more water if necessary, to loosen. Dollop a few large spoonfuls of the pimento cheese into the grits at a time, stirring each time until melted and all the pimento cheese is incorporated. Spoon into a bowl and top with the scallions.

BACON CHEESE GRITS WITH COLLARD GREENS



Bacon Cheese Grits with Collard Greens image

Provided by Patrick and Gina Neely : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 slices bacon, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups whole milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup quick cooking grits
1 cup grated smoked Gouda
2 tablespoons heavy cream
Butter, to finish
Chopped chives, for garnish
1 large bundle collard greens (about 1 pound), washed well
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 garlic cloves, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • For the Grits:
  • Add the bacon to medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir with a wooden spoon until some of the fat is rendered. Add the onion and saute until tender and the bacon is cooked and crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the chicken stock, milk, and salt and pepper, to taste, and bring to a boil.
  • Once boiling, gradually add the grits in a low steady stream, whisking continually. Reduce the heat to low and stir frequently until the liquid is almost absorbed and the grits are thick, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the smoked Gouda, whisking all the while to melt the cheese. Stir in heavy cream and butter. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper, if needed. Sprinkle with chives and serve immediately with the Collard Greens.
  • For the Collard Greens:
  • Remove and discard the tough stems and center ribs of the collard greens. Stack the leaves and roll tightly into a cylinder. Thinly slice the collards into ribbons about 1/16th of an inch thick. Repeat with any remaining collard greens.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. When the oil shimmers add the garlic and saute for 30 seconds. Add the collard greens, toss quickly with tongs, and saute until bright green, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the chicken stock and cook until the liquid evaporates, another 2 minutes. Serve immediately with the Grits.
