Directions

1. 1
   Bring to a boil the water with the salt in a medium sauce pan.

   Add the grits and stir so no lumps will be produced.

   Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low.
4. 4
   Stir occasionally and cook for 5 to 6 minutes.
5. 5
   If too thick add more water.
6. 6
   The grits should not feel gritty when tasted.
7. 7
   Add the butter and mix well.
8. 8
   Add the cheddar cheese and mix well.
9. 9
   At this point I like to remove them from the heat, cover them and let them rest for a minute or so.
