Tyler Florence’s Ultimate Shrimp & Grits

This Tyler Florence’s Ultimate Shrimp & Grits is one of my go to favorite recipes.  When I first started learning to cook, I was so intimidated to try Shrimp & Grits, but Tyler’s recipe is super easy to follow and comes out amazing everytime!  I definitely recommend the chorizo sausage he recommends.
Use good chicken stock, and jumbo shrimp.  This is a decadent southern dish that you definitely need to include in your southern recipe arsenal.  I included some step by step pictures and a printable recipe card!  Let me know how it comes out if you try it!  He has some old food network videos online that are also super helpful.

  2. Just made this today with a few substitutions: beef bouillon instead of chicken stock, and half cashew milk/half stock on the grits. The grits were delicious, but came out too tight; I will probably add at least another half cup minimum of cream next time. Also, I used Texas chorizo, which does not slice like a sausage – more like a ground meat. Anyway, I thought it came out great. Now I’m dreaming of adding bell peppers next time, too!
