"Everything I do is as authentic as possible, but with my own refinements," the chef Bill Neal told Craig Claiborne in a 1985 profile.

This savory blend of shrimp with cheese grits became one of the restaurant's best-known dishes.

3 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned grits
3 cups grated cheddar cheese (12 ounces)
Shrimp
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 medium green bell peppers, seeded and chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
2 jalapeño peppers, seeded and finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 cups heavy cream
Two 14 1/2-ounce cans diced tomatoes
2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
Tabasco or other hot sauce to taste
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, for garnish
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • To make the grits: Combine 4 cups of water, the milk, and salt in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and slowly whisk in the grits. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the saucepan and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes, or until thickened. Stir in the cheddar cheese. Cover and keep warm over a low heat.
