Shrimp and Grits

One of my favorite seafood dishes is shrimp and grits. It's not hard to prepare and I cook them several times a year when at the coast. The family likes them too, so I usually cook a double recipe when they are in town.  The secret is using fresh shrimp and making really creamy grits with butter and half and half.
