Lowcountry classic that travels Upstate via tourist demand: stone-ground grits cooked low with butter and cheese, topped with sauteed shrimp, andouille and pan sauce.

Shrimp and grits is rooted in the South Carolina Lowcountry, where Gullah cooks paired local shrimp with ground corn. Greenville is Upstate not coastal, but the dish anchors Southern menus across the state. Soby's and Stella's run versions on regular menus; Halls Chophouse keeps it on the brunch board.
