    Too salty!!! Have to adjust seasoning to allow for this. Make Emeril's essence and back off the salt. Other wise it would have been delicious.

    It was even more delicious than the restaurant I order it from, and it was not very hard to make once you followed the recipe.

    For those not familiar with cooking grits – lumpy, too thick, burnt, etc. – here is the fix. As mentioned in the show, there are varied grinds of corn grits, and therefore subtle nuances when cooking. Lumps - they can happen quickly, especially at the start, so stir immediately when adding the grits to the broth. If they get too thick add more liquid, poco a poco, as you stir, until you reach the desired consistency. Then too, from time to time, try using a silicone (good to 600 degrees spatula to stir the grits off the bottom. You can be stirring with a whisk and the bottom will overcook or even burn. And don't rush things - be careful of too much heat. As Bobby and Joe said, keep stirring until they are done.

    Make this a little healthier and use Olive Oil instead of butter. Add some green pepper and onion to the sauce mix. I used Stubb's Wicked Chicken, Wing Sauce instead of Hot sauce. I also added Jalapeno stuffed sausage instead of ham. Ummmm ummmm.
    I also added some provolone and asiago cheese to the grits. I added bacon to the grits.
    So I guess what I made up with using Olive Oil... I made it up in the added cheese and meats...
    LOL

    We've experimented with several shrimp and grits recipes and this is by far the best. Sauteed shrimp were excellent with just the right kick. Roux turned out well and was nice compliment. Grits were fabulous. Prefer this served with sauteed grit cakes?

    I made this recipe today because of the rave reviews and it came out awful.
    I only used 1 TBLSP of cajun seasoning (Cajun's Choice in the recipe and 1 TBLSP of the rest of the spices and only used half of the mixture on the shrimp and it was way too much.
    The grits came out tasty but clumpy (I've never made grits before and the sauce was horrible.
    It might have been me but I will not make this again!

    Made this tonight for me and the family. My first time eating shrimp and grits...and it was soo good, and very rich. The only thing I did differently was cut the cajun seasoning in half because my mother can't handle too much spice, but it was still delicious. I will definitely be making this again and again. Thanks for a great recipe!
