Charleston Shrimp & Grits: So Savory, You Won’t Need a Restaurant

Shrimp and grits, the quintessential Southern comfort food, have been elevated to an art form in Charleston, South Carolina. The dish combines creamy, buttery grits with perfectly seasoned shrimp, often accompanied by bold flavors like smoky andouille sausage or tangy tomato gravy. While Charleston is brimming with restaurants serving world-class shrimp and grits, nothing beats the joy of recreating this iconic dish in your own kitchen. With the right ingredients and a bit of Southern know-how, you can whip up a meal so delicious it will transport you straight to the Holy City, no reservations required.

Why Shrimp & Grits Is the Heart of Charleston Cuisine

Charleston's food scene is a melting pot of cultural influences, shaped by the region's rich history and coastal geography. Shrimp and grits began as a humble fisherman’s breakfast, with freshly caught shrimp sautéed in butter and served over stone-ground grits. Over time, it evolved into a dish celebrated by chefs and home cooks alike. The city's emphasis on farm-to-table dining and fresh, local seafood has cemented shrimp and grits as a symbol of Charleston’s culinary pride.

Recreating Charleston Shrimp & Grits at Home

Here’s how you can make a restaurant-quality shrimp and grits dish in the comfort of your kitchen:

Ingredients:

For the Grits:

1 cup stone-ground grits

4 cups water (or chicken broth for extra flavor)

1 cup heavy cream

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

For the Shrimp:

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

4 slices thick-cut bacon, diced

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 bell pepper, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup chicken or shrimp stock

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

1 teaspoon paprika

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions:

Prepare the Grits:

Bring water (or broth) to a boil in a medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in the grits to avoid lumps.

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20–25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir in butter, cream, and cheese until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.

Cook the Shrimp:

In a large skillet, cook diced bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.

Add onions and bell peppers to the skillet, sautéing until soft. Stir in garlic, Cajun seasoning, and paprika.

Add shrimp to the pan and cook until pink and opaque, about 2–3 minutes per side.

Pour in the stock and heavy cream, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Simmer for 3–4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Stir in lemon juice.

Assemble the Dish:

Spoon the creamy grits onto plates or shallow bowls. Top with the shrimp mixture and garnish with crispy bacon and fresh parsley.
