This is about the BEST use for KZfaq...... TO capture old culture recipes and stories from seniors so they will not be lost forever. Keep cooking Mattie! 💓

You know grandma cooks good when she doesn’t measure anything, she eyeballs it all…and it turns out great! Thank you! 🙏💗

You're going to make me cook this for dinner tonight... thank you for telling the people that there is no such thing as 5 min grits. I agree there is nothing like my mama's grits.

I'm a native american, and grits originated with our culture. The colonists learned to make it from the Muskogee, but it was and still is common to pretty much all of the corn growing tribes. I grew up with grits, and I have to say, this lady knows how to do grits right! Miss Mattie, you just earned yourself a subscription! I like to add a bit of cheese and andouille sausage to mine. I slice the andouille into coin shaped pieces and boil them with the grits before I even put it on the heat, so they get all cooked at the same time and the grits absorb the flavor. When I'm not feeling lazy, I'll also add some shrimp in with the andouille, and then top the grits some red eye gravy.

Thanks for showing folks how to properly cook grits.

This is the epitome of "I don't make them healthy, I make them good" but I'm willing to get fat on these 😭

Thank you so much!! Love this tutorial, such a nice Lady!! Blessings!!🙏🏾🙏🏾

“I cooked grits for 5 min & it wasn’t what I wanted”God bless you cause ain’t that the truth!

I miss my aunt Gladys from Mississippi best cooking I had EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE

You can NEVER have to much butter....or bacon!!!!😂. Love your channel, Mattie! My no-cooking self has been able to cook a couple of things by watching you❤️

U Really help me thank you and I’m only 12

Y’all remember al green 😂 thanks this was a great lesson

My uncle used to make me grits when I was a child. Tried to make them myself with the direction on the back of the can and they were not good, haha. Thank you for your directions!

Only a sweet African-American momma to make the traditional, delicious southern grits the way she makes it.

Wow, didn’t realize grits needed that much cooking. This recipe looks yummy. I’ll cook grits like this and give them another try. Thank you Mattie !

I love grits, and I just let mine simmer for an hour, and they are mice creamy. I love your spirit Ms.Mattie!

Well now I know what I've been doing wrong, not cooking the grits long enough I'm going to make some this morning 😋

Thank you for showing me the right way I’m 20 and just now learning how to cook grits. Much love to your channel❤️

Wow! This video is priceless! I always add too much water per the stupid directions on the box. Plus they be all grity and watery . Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom!

I went to culinary school and I always hear people say if you can’t cook grits you got a problem ! I gotta say cooking grits the RIGHT way is something 90 % of people mess up.. these grits look amazing though thank you for the great video

This my friend's is the correct way to cook grits! I knew this lady wouldn't disappoint... 😋

This lady is a real cook. Good grits are hard to find. I could make a whole meal out of her grits with just a little butter and salt and pepper.

Thank you aunt Mattie for putting down. Showing these youngins how its supposed to be done! My Granny would of loved your video.💪🏾💯🖤

Being from Australia, I’ve never had grits. You’ve made them look so delicious that I immediately ordered some! I can’t wait to try them using your method ❤

Miss Mattie, what a wonderful video. I can feel all the love and the wisdom. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much Mama Mattie I’m currently stirring my own pot of grits. I’m mid 20s so you should be proud that there are those of us in the younger generation who loves to cook You were also hilarious with your commentary. Reminds me of my own grandmothers

I'm from Wisconsin and I do like grits. Most of the time I put creamy peanut butter in it because I love peanut butter.

Pretty lady with the nice house and the remedy to my gritty grits.......thank you matty.

Thank you Ms. Mattie for making this video! I’m still trying to master my grits! 😘

I felt that "Don't make this everyday if you cook em like I do because my grits tastes good!" Haha!! I know that's right!

It looks like something I would potentially like, I've never had grits before.

Nothing like a good southern woman 🥰 they are the best cooks & bakers💯 makes food taste so good😋soothe the soul♥️

When i put water in the pot to boil i also put some almond milk and butter in it! it gives it a nice creamy taste delicious

I put milk in mines too. I do mines like this but add milk. It makes it creamier and taste very good.

Thank you so much for this video. My mom used to cook grits every morning. Your video really shows you how to actually cook grits. I love it thanks.

Dear Lady, thank you for teachink me and lots of more! I bought and did!

So timely! A friend of mine posted today that they wondered how everyone ate their grits. I'll pass this video along to her! I LOVE grits!!

YAS!! I love the way you cook them grits! I live in south Louisiana and we grew up on grits, cream o wheat, and oatmeal. But I have always been intimidated by cooking grits, because they stick and they pop lol. Once you are burned by grits ya never forget. Thank you for this video!

thank you Mattie, you are like a breath of fresh air...

delicious creamy grits🌷

Grandma whippin the grits !! ❤️ the best thing to wake up to

THIS IS HOW I COOK MY GRITS, I HAVE TO COOK THEM ALONG TIME SO THEY CAN BE CREAMY. MAY GOD BLESSINGS,COURAGE AND STRENGTH CONTINUE TO BE WITH YOUR FAMILY ALWAYS 🙂💖🙏🙏🙏

Thank you auntie , your niece Kisha from Kansas ❤❤❤❤

I just wanna hug grandma! Thank you for teaching me granny! Love ya

You did a very good job they look delicious the consistency was perfect and I can tell they was cooked just right no gritty texture

I just follow the directions on the box, but stir a lot more and cook more until creamy but not spread when put on plate. You gotta stir your grits. The way she is doing is how we cooked regular not so much instant or quick grits. I love to make a pot up enough to fill a loaf pan, and then pour in the pan and put in refrigerator to set up to later in the day or next day. Take out, turn out on parchment or wax or a plate, slice medium thickness and warm/brown in browned butter or if you have it, strained bacon fat. Oh my gosh, put slow cooked pot roast (with the onions, celery, carrots) over a couple of slices. So good. If you want, you can wrap the loaf up and just slice off what you want for a couple days instead of browning at one time. Also you can, after the grits are nice and creamy, but still very hot, grate and add in your favorite cheese - Mexican blend, or a Swiss type or other melty cheese or a high quality cheddar. Think the cheeses you like in Mac and cheese. You can serve like that or I prefer to put in the loaf pan to set up and brown the same as noted above. It’s good under chili, or just as a side on the plate with roast chicken, steak, bbq, etc. Quaker grits, I think, have always been more gritty...Jim Dandy is much creamier. I think it’s because of the way they mill. Restaurants today don’t know how to make grits - she is right for sure there. Look for old fashion grits and if you can find them fresh milled they are more flavorful. Look for a local mill that stone grinds - you will smell the corn fragrance. Fresh ground is much better for cornbread too.

Ms.Mattieeeeee!!! Thoes gritsss yess ma’am! I made them for me and my dad today ohhhh God! Soul touching!💗

Thanks for the lesson. I could never get my grits to come out like my grandparents grits. My grandfather and grandmother could both cook grits.

Thank you for teaching us Miss Mattie! Now I think I’ll try

Looks delish! I had just posted up Grandma’s Grits this morning. Such great memories!

I’m a 60 year gal and I’ve never cooked real grits before. I tried the instant ones in a single Serv pack with “butter flavor”. Gawd awful. a few days ago my neighbor gave me some grits that he saw ground at a grist Mill in New England and I had to try your recipe. Not bad for my first attempt but now I know what I’ve done wrong and I won’t do it next time. I guess lots of water (and patience) truly is the key. I also put a little bit of maple syrup that a friend of mine made on top. Thank you so much Miss Mattie. I’m a vegetarian and not a great cook So I think I will subscribe.

Thank you Miss Mattie! My first time making grits, and will use your recipe. 💗

Oh. My. Gawd!! That looks Heavenly!! Thank you so much for sharing!!

Thankyou I took the time and followed your method. I had the best grits I ever had.

Thank you for the recipe and tips. I have 3 growing boys and grits really do fill them up. We do grits and eggs now most mornings now. Easy and affordable. 🙌

This Mother rules. I need my measuring cups. I also dont cook grits often so when I do, I do it right. Butter, pepperjack cheese, salt and hot pepper flakes. Sometimes I add scallion ( dont knock it til you try it)!😊

Thanks for the help I'm 16 and I don't know how to make grits but I do now

Just watching your videos listening at your voice is so soothing I bet you can really throw down in the kitchen 😘

Love the way she thinks. My grandmother was a very good cook 🍳 and had to cook to fill the tummies.

I'm a new englander, never made grits before, but money is getting tight and I'm trying to learn how to make staple foods to save some money for my wife and I. Thank you for this recipe I never would've known to cook them longer and probably would've screwed it up. Wish I had you for a grandma

Here because I want to start cooking my own grits! You are so beautiful and lovely to watch, so excited and thank you so much!

I sure enjoy watching you Cook. I have learned a lot from watching you Cook. Thank you Mrs. Mattie!❤

“You remember Al Green, dontcha?” If they don’t know, read up on him. Hot grits are like napalm burns on skin.
