Receta Shrimp and Grits
I am a sucker for shrimp and grits! My love affair with this dish began 10 years ago at Tommy Condon's Irish Pub, located in beautiful Charleston, SC. Over the past years I must say that nothing ever tasted quite like that first dish at Tommy's. I am aware this particular recipe is somewhat different than the shrimp and grits that most people are used to, and everyone is entitled to their own opinions on shrimp and grits recipes. This is the closest recipe I've found to Tommy's with a few twists of my own!
