Enough of the hundreds of interpretations of shrimp and grits which include everything from andouille sausage and pork belly to too much cheese and butter, or a BBQ shrimp style sauce. I have been seeking the authentic and most original version of the simple fisherman's breakfast of shrimp and grits with grits as the foundation or baseline. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
