There was a sense of manifest destiny around this dish when it came together for me the other day. I was coming off my seafood high from the International Boston Seafood Show, I had found some huge super jumbo raw shrimp on sale for $9.99/lb (thats good around here), and I had been hankering for Paula Deen’s Shrimp Grits that I had seen in the Best of the Best cookbook I got last year from Food & Wine Magazine.
The source cookbook was Paula Deen & Friends: Living It Up, Southern Style
Leite’s Culinaria has done a beautiful job of spotlighting this recipe so I won’t do the same. What I will do instead is show you the recipe for my adaptation, which is really quite different than what Miss Paula did.
