Tell me about Grits

I have never made them before, but I want to try a recipe that is served over grits.  Can I get the instant ones, or are the others better?  How do you season them?  How do you keep them moist?  It's a shrimp recipe I am making. TIA!

    I use instant, cook right before you serve cause they only take a sec and I season with butter and salt but some folks put jelly, etc...YUCK! lol

    Keeping them moist is not really an issue. Have you ever made polenta? It's very similar, grits are just a bit coarser. I've never had instant grits. Season with butter, salt, pepper, even by cooking with broth since you want them for dinner. Or cheese... mmm... cheese grits, yum! Maybe toss in a bit of whatever you're putting on the shrimp maybe.
