Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Butter a 1.5 to 2-quart casserole dish or soufflé dish thoroughly.
  3. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Slowly whisk in the grits to prevent lumps.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes until the grits are tender and creamy. (If using instant grits, follow package directions instead.)
  5. Remove the grits from heat and allow them to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
  6. Stir in the butter, grated cheddar cheese, sea salt, Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper until well combined and melted.
  7. Gently fold the beaten eggs into the grits mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed without deflating the mixture too much.
  8. Pour the grits mixture into the prepared buttered casserole dish.
  9. Bake for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the soufflé is puffed, golden brown on top, and set in the middle.
  10. Serve immediately while hot and fluffy.
