PREVIEW TEXT GOES HERE Shrimp and Grits Shrimp and grits is a beloved Southern dish that originated as a humble and inexpensive meal for fishermen and their families. While traditionally a breakfast item, it has evolved into a popular dinner dish that can be found in all manner of restaurants, from casual seafood shacks to trendy hot spots. There are endless variations of the dish. To quote Daniel Gritzer from Serious Eats: "Shrimp and grits is a dish with so many renditions, the only thing you can really count on is that it contains shrimp…and grits." READ MORE Hush Puppies Hush puppies are crispy, bite-sized fritters made from a cornmeal-based batter. There are many theories about how they got their adorable name, but one popular story suggests that hunters and fishermen would fry up cornmeal batter to "hush the puppies" during cookouts and fish-fries. READ MORE Pimento Cheese Referred to as "the pâté of the South," pimento cheese is a spread made from sharp Cheddar, mayonnaise, cream cheese, and jarred pimentos.
