I Made Southern Grits From Scratch (Did I Get It Right?)

Southern grits are a staple across parts of the American South… so naturally I decided to make them the complicated way. Instead of buying ready-ground grits, I bought whole white hominy corn and milled it myself before cooking three versions: plain, butter-loaded and a proper bacon & shrimp version. The results genuinely surprised me.
