Directions

  1. Place water and grits into the bottom of a slow cooker. Let grits settle to the bottom, use a strainer to fish out any grits that float to the top. Add salt. Stir or whisk well.

  2. Cover and let cook on High for 2 hours, stirring well after 1 hour to avoid clumps.

  3. Stir in milk, heavy cream, and butter. Mix well. Cover and continue to cook on High until grits have a fairly thick, creamy, uniform consistency, about 30 minutes more.

Recipe Note

This is my favorite way to make grits. So simple! Just a little prep work and then let the slow cooker turn your grits into a delicious, smooth base for any dish. Season as you wish with cheese, bacon, chives, pepper, etc.
