To those who don’t know Grits is a huge part of black culture and coming from a black man Cowboy Kent did a fantastic job with the shrimp and grits everything was so on point and me and my family just watched and our mouths are watering as I type... Great content Uncle Kent 💯👌🏽

[@veedejames721]

Grits is not necessarily a Black thing. In fact white people in the South love grits just as much. Whether it's grits, or polenta. It's all ground corn. Just grounded different. I think if people just knew what it was then, there would not be so much confusion. All through the south, I find grits is on the breakfast menu. Most northeners like cream of wheat, because it's what most grew up with.in my home my mom cooked the slow cooked grits, not the instant grits. I never had the instant till I was an adult. Funny how I see some people add sugar and milk, my mom, my grandmothers would of fainted. I say to each his or her own. I'm still learning. Growing up my mother wanted us to have a good breakfast that would hold us till lunchtime. Both my parents worked but going to school, if my mom had to be at work before we caught the bus, we would wake to grits still hot on the stove, with whatever meat she had fixed, there was biscuits. In the winter hot cocoa. She would leave about six fifteen. Now there's cold cereal, toast not many get to eat a hot breakfast anymore. The weekends was the only time we had cereal. It's funny how some up north can't even get certain kinds of flour. So I guess it is possible they never had grits. True most southerners know about grits. I didn't say this to argue or disagree. But every white house hold I know in the South ate grits, they wasn't just for breakfast either. They was reasonable, most found it a way to feed their family and it was filling. I laugh when I hear people say they don't like grits. I ask if they love corn. They get it. Bless you and your family. I've eaten grits all of my life. Especially on cold mornings, they warm me up. They are good. 🙂✌️💖🖖🙏. Vee, Andrew and Family.

At 73 I'm just learning to cook. I've been a big fan of shrimp and grits for a long ,long time. So I watched this video about 35 times and tried it. My wife (who hates grits ) loved it. And I must say ,it rivals the best I've ever eaten. Thanks Kent and Shannon

[@bobbeckham7074]

I was lucky enough to fall in love and marry a beautiful low country girl. She could cook it all and taught me well. I think you got the recipe down pat. Peace and blessings on Shan, the pups and yourself. Love what you're doing. Hope to see you on the trail.

I never ate grits until I was in the navy. I was driving from New Mexico to Key West with my brother as we both headed to training. We stopped in a little Mom n Pop restaurant and the waitress, a really sweet black lady, asked me if I wanted grits. I asked her, What’s a grit? I fell in love with her immediately because she bent over the counter and kissed me on the forehead and said, “You poor child. If your mama didn’t feed you grits, you had a deprived childhood!” In fairness, my mom fed us cornmeal mush pretty often so I wasn’t deprived too bad! Blessings y’all!

[@DDL2728]

Ahahahaha, that's too cute!! How sweet!!

[@dr.froghopper6711]

@@DDL2728 yeah, she was super nice and about 50 years my senior. She wanted to know all about New Mexico, what we ate, if we still fought the Indians. We both knew little of each other’s cultures and asked lots of questions. She’s gonna be with me for a lot longer than I imagine she lived. But that’s how a little kindness can affect a life for much longer than we think.

[@faithsrvtrip8768]

Same here! Never had grits until I was in the Army. I like savory grits with cheese, salt, pepper and Tabasco sauce!

Cowboy Kent and Company - God bless you. The recipes are beyond amazing, but what this country really needs is for you to somehow bottle up all that love and gratitude and sprinkle it across this entire land. I'll do my part to make it so... So glad I found your channel - I'll be spreadin' it around to everyone I know.

[@starlakelsey2782]

Kent, I'm from SC and I'd be glad to do a throw down on grit cooking. I make the best ones anyone has had in my family of grit haters. I stand behind that. Fresh raw stone ground grits. Lots of cream, some water and a bunch of white cheddar...with some garlic, salt and white pepper. Plus a low and slow for hours and hours. Silk on the throat and tongue. This is the one and only thing that I am sure of that beats the best. LOL How's about it? I throw down the gauntlet. LOL Of course we won't get to but I'd sure love to tell you the right way to do them. LOL

[@jameschancey251]

Kent,I cannot believe you didn't give me a holler before you cooked this.Cheese Grits have been just about my favorite food since I was a toddler. I'm 64 now.Same for shrimp. Good stuff, man.

[@cristhomson9043]

Funny story, my stepdad gets the cowboys and Indians magazine every month and my mom found a recipe in one of them. She showed me and I said “that’s Kent Rollins” a squash, cheeses number that was so good. My 87 year old stepdad now watches you on the daily.

[@leeskipper7041]

As a South Carolinian, I am impressed with your take on shrimp and grits. Well done

[@johnstevens2972]

I feel like everything to do with the peppers was too much.

[@kathya739]

Sooooo good!!!! Southern gal here, and the only thing I'd add is, after sautéing the veggies halfway in drippings, add the butter; sprinkle all with flour and cook just long enough to remove raw taste, then slowly add the broth, stirring. Makes a lump-free roux, and eliminates you stove standing and dirty pot cleanup!! Good job Kent. Will have to play catch-up to find out about those adorable puppies(grown, by now).

Kent is fun to watch, just the right mix of cooking tips, humor, warm hospitality, and creativity. I really enjoy your videos...... I am not a southerner, but I love kicked-up grits-- cheese, bacon, spring onions, sausage, shrimp, veggies, cilantro..... pretty much whatever you have can be mixed into grits for some tasty stick-to-your-ribs goodness.

[@OcotilloTom]

My wife heard shrimp "n" grits and almost stepped on my foot getting to the screen! It's one of her favorites. Being a Louisiana boy my family always had grits. Like you Kent I did not and do not like them. When the grits came to the table I was out the door and on the tractor to avoid them. I'm sure this recipe will soon appear on our dinner table except mine will be over rice or I can hear that old John Deere calling my name! Arizona Tom

Sorry about your gall bladder Kent. Hope you are felling better. My dad (who was born not far from you there) taught me about the best way to serve grits a long time ago. You make your eggs over easy (along with the bacon, sausage, home fries etc...) Then you eat the grits with the over easy eggs and biscuits) He learned that down in Savannah during his AF flyin days. Also known as "The Uncle Hersbel's Breakfast" at ....Cracker Barrel

My parents were from Tennessee and Mississippi so I grew up eating grits and you're correct "grits ain't just for breakfast"!! I live in North Carolina and we use House Autry stone ground grits. I'm fortunate to have several grist mills near me that still produce grits,flour and meals! Great job now I'm gonna fix me some cheesy grits,shrimp and andouille sausage or smoked kiolbassa sausage with sweet taters, and onions!! Cowboy Up!!

Georgia boy born and raised here: Mr. Rollins *NOBODY* should blame you for disliking "grits" if all you have ever had was Instant grits it's no wonder you don't care for them. It ain't the same. In the Southeast, instant grits are what you feed somebody you don't particularly care when you don't want to seem rude by turning them away outright. My grandmother called them and instant mashed potatoes "the height of laziness" and wouldn't allow them in her house.
