Steps:
- Bring water and 2 teaspoons salt to a boil in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk grits into the boiling water, and then whisk in half-and-half. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until grits are thickened and tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
- Sprinkle shrimp with salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Add lemon juice, toss to combine, and set aside to marinate.
- Place sausage slices in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove sausage from the skillet.
- Add bacon to the same skillet and increase heat to medium-high. Cook until evenly browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain, then chop or crumble when cool enough to handle. Leave bacon drippings in the skillet.
- Add bell peppers, onion, and garlic to the bacon drippings; cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 8 minutes.
- Stir cooked sausage and marinated shrimp into the skillet with the cooked vegetables. Turn off the heat and set aside.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour, stirring to create a smooth roux. Turn heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is golden brown in color, 8 to 10 minutes. Watch carefully, mixture burns easily.
- Pour the roux over the sausage, shrimp, and vegetables. Place the skillet over medium heat, add chicken broth, bacon, and Worcestershire sauce, and stir to combine. Cook until sauce thickens up and shrimp turn opaque and bright pink, about 8 minutes.
- Just before serving, mix sharp Cheddar cheese into grits until melted and grits are creamy and light yellow. Serve shrimp mixture over cheese grits.

THE BEST SHRIMP AND GRITS
This southern staple is full of flavor and plenty saucy. We tried using bacon, but missed the spiciness and complexity of andouille sausage. For added richness, we cook the grits in milk and finish them with butter.

Steps:
- Bring the milk, 2 cups water, 2 3/4 teaspoons salt and the sugar to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Vigorously whisk in the grits until the liquid comes back to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer, whisking occasionally and scraping the bottom and sides of the pan to prevent sticking, until the grits are tender and thick, 35 to 45 minutes. Whisk in the butter until melted. Cover and set aside until ready to serve.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil a large skillet over high heat until you see wisps of smoke rising from the pan. Cook half the shrimp until lightly browned on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a large bowl. Repeat with 1 more tablespoon of the oil and the remaining shrimp.
- Reduce the heat to medium-high and add the andouille in an even layer. Cook undisturbed until browned on one side, about 1 minute. Transfer to the bowl with the shrimp.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the same skillet and add the garlic, bell peppers, onions, jalapeno, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, until brick-red colored, about 1 minute. Add the wine to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Cook until the sauce reduces and you can no longer smell any alcohol, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the shrimp, andouille, any accumulated juices and 1/4 cup water and cook until the sauce is slightly reduced and the shrimp are cooked through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the warm grits among plates. Serve the shrimp and andouille over the grits. Garnish with the scallions.

Steps:
- Combine shrimp with lemon juice and a couple of generous splashes of Tabasco sauce; let sit while you begin the grits and gravy.

- When you have added all the grits, decrease heat to a very low simmer and cook over low heat for 35-40 minutes, stirring occasionally at first and more frequently toward the end.

- Add in the scallions; sprinkle flour over the mixture; continue sautéing for 5 minutes longer.
- Stir in the stock and remaining salt; cook for 5 minutes longer; remove from the heat while you finish the grits.
- When the grits are thick and creamy, stir in as much of the butter as you wish, followed by the cheese.
- Add a splash of Tabasco sauce and more salt if desired.
- Cover the grits while you finish the gravy.
- Return the gravy to the heat and stir in the shrimp; cook until the shrimp are opaque throughout, about 5 minutes.

Steps:
- Make the grits: Place grits in a bowl, and cover with cold water by about 3 inches. Stir grits so that bits of husk rise to the top; pour off top layer of water. Strain through a fine sieve, and transfer to a medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in 5 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer, whisking, until beginning to thicken. Reduce heat, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally and scraping bottom and sides of pan with a wooden spoon, until thick and creamy, about 45 minutes. Remove from heat. Let stand, covered, for 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the shrimp: Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until beginning to crisp, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate using a slotted spoon. Cook garlic, onion, and bell pepper in bacon fat, stirring occasionally, until just tender but not browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Season shrimp on both sides with salt and pepper. Raise heat to medium-high; push vegetables to edge of skillet. Add oil, and heat until shimmering. Sear shrimp in a single layer for 2 minutes. Flip, and sear for 1 minute. Push shrimp to edge of skillet; sprinkle flour into center. Cook, stirring flour into vegetable-shrimp mixture, for 2 minutes. Add stock. Simmer, stirring, until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Add lemon juice, and stir in reserved bacon. Season with salt and pepper.
- Just before serving, heat grits over medium-low. Stir in cheese and butter; season with salt and pepper. Serve shrimp over grits on warmed plates.
