This was delicious and quick! I used polenta instead of grits (more flavor and quicker. I also used turkey bacon fried in a little cooking oil. Will definitely make this again and again!

Awesome!! My grocery store only had instant grits, used chicken stock instead of water. Was out of bacon, so I can't imagine how much more delicious this will be next time!

I have made this recipe several times for guests to rave reviews. It is so easy and quick when you do the prep work beforehand, as it comes together quickly. Living in Georgia and having access to local shrimp makes this dish even more delicious. It's a winner.

Sooo good! This is a new family favorite! Couldn't find regular grits so used instant instead and it turned out fine. For company, I used large shrimp instead of small ones and served it on a separate platter. Outstanding!

Outstanding! However, I did not create the identical recipe. I read some reviews and made some changes. I did make the grits in a shrimp stock. I made the stck from the shrimp shells added to it some cajun seasoning, kosher salt and pepper. Boiled it about 30 minutes and strained out the shells, legs, etc. There were somecomplaints about the dish being greasy. So after I cooked my bacon I poured most of the grease out of the pan before adding the shrimp. I left all the good burned up bacon bits however. After putting the shrimp in the pan, I seasoned with some cayanne pepper to taste and cajun seasoning. Then added all the other ingredients. At the very end I added one fresh diced tomato. Gave it great color balance and flavor. Man, its was great. Rich-yes. Greasy-no. Give it a shot. Also thought this would be a good recipe for camping if everything was prepped ahead.

Not spicy at all (should have known - no spicy ingredients. Very heavy and kind of boring. I was surprised because I usually like Bobby's recipes. On second glance, this recipe shows Bobby's picture but is by Martha Nesbit, whoever that is. Definitely won't be making this again. If you're looking for that Southern/Cajun flavor, look elsewhere.

Superb! I live in northern Maine and the only type of grits I could find was the 5 minute variety. Would the recipe be different if I could find stone ground grits? Also, has anyone tried adding peas?
