Smoked Gouda Grits

These creamy Southern style Smoked Gouda Grits taste like Sunday brunch.

This recipe makes 8 servings

Whatcha Need:

• 2-1/2 cups whole milk
• 1-1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 cup coarse stone-ground grits (not instant)
• 4 Tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
• 4 ounces smoked Gouda, grated
• Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
• 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Whatcha Do:

1. Bring milk, salt, and 2-1/2 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Gradually whisk in grits until smooth.
