So I was recently turned onto grits as a breakfast item. Just a little bit goes along away quantity wise. But I also realized it has a certain lumpy, slimy texture to it which could be a nice WAM substance. Anyone tried it yet?

Well, I can tell you're from North Carolina even without looking to the left.

Haha yup! Though originally from South Florida. However, I've lived in the Carolinas for almost 15-years now.

Let me know when you manage to wam with sweet tea and vinegar-based BBQ.

We used a bucket of grits in a breakfast themed mess. I don't think a true North Coralinian would approve though because they were instant grits :ahahah: Make sure you let them cool sufficiently before using, the top of the bucket felt cool to the touch but it was still really hot in the middle when we stirred it for about half an hour

Is that what we would call porridge?

Porridge is closer to what we call oatmeal in the USA. Grits are made from corn and have a different consistency. They used to be a purely southern US thing but now I think you can get them nationwide here.

Oatmeal is a much better substance. I prefer my grit with butter and sharp cheddar, on my plate.
