Grits with Sausage, Cooked
Grits with Sausage is a traditional Southern U.S. dish combining slow-cooked ground corn (grits) with pan-browned pork sausage. The grits provide a creamy, porridge-like base rich in carbohydrates, while the sausage contributes savory flavor and significant protein and saturated fat. This hearty meal often includes added butter or cheese for richness, making it energy-dense, though variations may incorporate vegetables or shrimp for balance. While naturally gluten-free when made with pure corn grits, sodium content varies significantly depending on sausage seasoning.
