    This was time consuming but SO WORTH IT!! This is by far, the BEST meal I have ever made! Nola's couldn't make it any better than I did. The blends were perfect!

    This is hands down my favorite dish of all time! The combination of the Abita beer glaze with the sweet shrimp, smoky mushrooms, and rich buerre blanc is just incredible. Thank you for the recipe.

    Emeril you have me spoiled now because if I get grits of any less caliber, I wont eat them. I use that part of the recipe almost weekly for breakfast on Sunday morning and there are never any left. I do add a dash or two of liquid smoke if I only have plain cheddar on hand.

    I did cook the whole recipe and the family loved it as well. Yes its not a 30 min meal however its well worth the time.

    My husband and I thought this dish was great! When we first looked at the recipe we were afraid that it would be too complicated for us (we are more of a 30 min meal type, but plowed ahead anyway. It was so worth the time and effort!!! The whole dish is absolutely outstanding! I have made this dish several time?s for our friends and they all think they are in a 5 star restaurant. This is definitely a keeper for me.

    great recipe but my abita glaze needs help. I've had this recipe at NOLA and the glaze is smooth, dark red, very tasty. When I make it the texture is what you would expect reducing catsup. It's lumpy. Any ideas?

    Served this to my daughter and her husband, who just had their first baby. Decreased the red pepper to 1/2 teasp. since mommy is watching spicy foods. It was everything I would expect from Emeril! The only thing I didn't do was smoke the Cremini Mushrooms, but it was still awesome!!! Will make this again, and again...

    My sister just cooked this dish for our family last night and it was amazing. The grits were so creamy and smooth. The BBQ sauce was sweet and the citrus sauce spicy. Delicious!

    This dish is one of Emeril's best and believe me, I have tried many of his recipes with great success. I am also perplexed why anyone would rate a recipe without trying it. If you don't have a smoker, just saute the mushrooms as I, and others did. Yes, there are a lot of ingredients but it really wasn't a lot of work. This recipe is well worth your time. Thanks Emeril !!

    This meal was to die for. I didn't have apple wood, so I used cherry instead. I also used fat free half and half instead of the heavy cream. It was a little time consuming but simple. I'm sure after making it a couple of times, I can get the time down by quite a bit. This is definitely a "keeper"!

    In response to the "Disappointed" Anonymous reviewer's comment on 03/04/07, you can get a stove top smoker from Chefs Catalog for a very low price: http://www.chefscatalog.com/product/95299-stovetop-smoker.aspx . You can smoke anything edible right in your home because there is no need to go outside. They work great (I have one. This would not be an issue for an experienced cook (smile. I sympothize with your ability to cook (we all aren't able however, by your comments it appears you didn't even try the recipe. Why someone would rate something without trying it is beyond me...... Good luck
