Whisk in butter and cheddar cheese. Season with salt with salt and pepper and lemon. In saute pan, cook chopped apple bacon reserving some fat. Sweat garlic in fat, add shrimp and cook until tender. Check seasoning and adjust. Place grits in bowl, top with sauteed shrimp and bacon. Garnish with parsley and scallions.
Don’t forget about dessert! At a recent wedding, our culinary team created exceptional desserts in American Metalcraft’s Mini Cast Iron Pot. The bride and groom wanted to provide guests with an alternative to wedding cake, our team used seasonal fruit to create individual tarts, pies and cobblers. Because each handle was covered with its own mini oven mitt, guests were able to pick up their preferred dessert and carry it back to their table. Doesn’t a mini apple cobbler or mini pumpkin pie sound great for dessert after your Thanksgiving meal?
