This was breakfast one morning while camping. I cut the time down by frying the bacon at home and bringing the drippings in a jar.

Used some Conecuh spicy sausage (my new favorite), peppers, garlic, onions...

Started the grits first. These were great grits from Brethren Armor, thanks again!
simmered and stirred the grits...
used one cup of grits, three cups of water and two cups of heavy cream, then a pinch of salt.

while the grits simmered, I browned the Conecuh sausage in bacon drippings....

had to be one of my favorite camp breakfasts. The wood smoke adds a lot of flavor to the dish. I'm making it again next time!

Are we sure Cowgirl isn't a cover for Iron Chef Emeril? Its just all making sense now.
Maybe that's why I always feel so inadequate after I read the posts.
 
Now that is how Grits should be done. I don't care so much for plain grits but I would devoure that!

Well Done! :clap::thumb::clap:
