Jack and those not from the southern US. Hominy grits are a type of cooked
cereal. grits are corn that has been bleached dried (usually not bleached
any more with good white breed of corn) and ground finely- similar to cream
of wheat. You put on a pot of water to boil and add the grits, can be sooupy
or really thick. Usually made with a little butter, salt and pepper.  some
choose to put bacon fat, ground sausage, cheese in them. Served with eggs
and hot biscuits (bread not cookies for the English folks out there.) Yes.
bacon,  sausage, ham or pork chops.  For a friend of mine she did put on
sugar and milk- yes like cream of wheat- she was from up North as well. I
will stick to the butter. No they are not greasy. My kids tried these first
after bananas and potatoes.
By the way they do stick to the ribs especially when it is cold.

Yes I am from the south- NC and have ground my own grits-
