I did not care for this recipe at all! It may have been the bacon or the green pepper or the Cajun seasoning or maybe all of the above—those things I definitively enjoy, but many not together? Or, it could have been more about how I’ve never had a traditional Shrimp & Grits?

I usually make the grits the same, and a Mexican-influenced tomato-based sauce. I think I’ll stick with that, at least for now!

But the instructions were good & clear and I did like the fresh lemon juice at the end… I don’t think it was a bad recipe, I just didn’t care for the taste of the sauce.

The shrimp part. Easy and your recipe is great. GRITS? HOLY CRAP. Nobody agrees on anything. Not the ratio of fluid to grits. Not the fluid itself. And then there are 5 kinds or types of grits and DONT YOU DARE USE XXXX TYPE. Fluid? Milk, water, 2% milk, chicken stock, vegetable stock, fish stock. Cream? Yes, No, Maybe. But don’t use xxxx.

“Turn heat to medium high and add shrimp to the pan with bacon grease.”

What do you do with the bacon fat after you fry the shrimp in it?

I made this tonight and I received RAVE reviews. My husband Loves shrimp and grits, and I have never been able to make them as good as the ones he had while living in Louisiana until now. This recipe is a keeper. So yummy.
I stumbled across this website when I was looking for a good german chocolate cake recipe and the one on this site was so highly recommended I tried it. Well it was amazing and since that one recipe I have made so many more from this site. I go on every Sunday and pick new recipes to try and my family just LOVES every one of them. I just got the book from amazon and I have decided to gift it to everyone for Christmas this year, that is how much we just love Lauren’s recipes. Thank you so much for posting all these wonderful recipes!!
