  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

You eat grits with ham and red eye gravy . . . never heard of using sugar . . . salt and butter is good . . . also grating sharp cheddar cheese into them and you can also bake them . . .


Only had Red Eye gravy once(it was wonderful) but had it with a biscut. Grits to me,are exactly like Cream Of Wheat cereal,so if I ate them which I don't buy them, (my sister asked mom to when we were still at home,I would eat them with sugar AND milk,LOL!

My Wife came home the other day talking about cheese grits. That has been the only thing on my mind for the last couple of days. I guess I'm just going to have to break down and make some cheese grits.

This is a wonderful way to prepare grits . . .:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

3 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup butter
1 1/4 cups stone-ground grits
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup heavy cream


In large pot, heat milk and butter until simmering.

Add grits, whisking to prevent sticking to pan.

Cook for approximately 30 minutes stirring frequently.

Season with salt and pepper.

Cook until thick consistency .


Enjoy

Red Eye Gravy

2 (1 lb) ham steaks (1/2-inch thick)
1 1/2 cups milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 cup strong black coffee
1/4 teaspoon pepper


Put the ham in a shallow container; pour milk over ham.

Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.

Remove ham from milk.

Cut slashes in fat to keep from curling.

Cook 1 slice of ham in 1 tablespoon oil in a heavy cast-iron skillet over low heat until light brown, turning once.

Remove from skillet and keep warm.

Drain off pan drippings and reserve for gravy.

Repeat procedure with remaining oil and ham.

Add reserved pan drippings, coffee, and pepper to skillet; bring to a boil and stir constantly.

Lower heat and simmer 3 minutes.

Serve gravy with ham and grits.
