 Ingredients List

  • 2 c Grits, , cooked
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 Eggs, , beaten
  • Bacon drippings

 Directions

Pack the cooked grits in a shallow baking dish to a thickness of about 1/2
inch. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator, preferably
overnight. When the grits are firm, cut into squares.

Beat the eggs well. Heat the bacon drippings in a large, heavy skillet.
Sprinkle the grits with salt and pepper and dip into the eggs. Fry in the
bacon drippings over medium-high heat until golden brown, turning once.
Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.

The grits can also be shaped into small balls before being dipped into the
eggs.

NOTES : Bea says that cooking grits slowly in a double boiler greatly
improves the flavor and texture. Leftover grits are delicious when dipped
into egg and fried.
