Grits or Hash Browns?

[Jagger69]

Anybody who has traveled in the southern USA knows that you typically get a choice between grits and hash browns when ordering breakfast. As a Texan, what I would like to know is whether you prefer grits (that's me....lots of butter and pepper), have tried grits but prefer hash browns or simply refuse to even try grits and automatically order hash browns.

Grits are so underrated IMO. Tell me how you feel!

I've never tried grits and would've probably never heard of them if not for the movie My Cousin Vinny. Is it similar to cream of wheat? That stuff is good mixed with sweetened condensed milk. That said, I love me some hash browns.

It depends. If i'm eating steak then hash browns. If I'm eating shrimp, then grits. Depending how hard the night before was, it might be both . Growing up, grits was so much a breakfast staple that I wouldn't eat it for years.

Corned beef hash, please.

Give me a nice medium rare steak, some has browns with gravy (not ketchup), two eggs over easy, and some toast. -- The Drew Brees Special

I've never really been a fan of grits.

Hash browns are fine, but you can get them at every fast food restaurant with a frier or flattop, and good grits takes time, and way more salt than they put in them, and salt cannot be added after. It just doesn't work. You're left with a watery, salty taste that's not good grits, or good eats.

Speaking of Good Eats, according to Alton Brown, for those of you who haven't tried grits, if you have tried polenta, you've basically had grits. Now me, personally, I've just had grits, so I don't know for sure.

I have tried grits on many occasions, and I want to like them. But damn. That's some disgusting crap they call food.

Sorry Jagger. I'd rather let you poop on my chest than have a meal of grits.

Ha pretty much this for me too.

none of them....

Neither, thank you.

I'd rather like some scrambled eggs with bacon or a typical German breakfast with fresh, crispy buns or a Bauernfrühstück (farmer's breakfast = fried potatos with scrambled eggs, bacon and onions). :yummie:

I've eaten hash browns, I like hash browns. I'd try almost any foodstuff, including grits, now that Wiki has told me what they are. And I would have to say "kiss my grits, nooch" in my best Jay Mewes voice before tucking in.

But the honest answer when it comes to a hot breakfast is, I don't want to eat anything that takes up valuable room that could be taken up with (look away now, Maggie) more bacon, more sausages, or if they have it, black pudding. I think that's blood sausage to the uninitiated.

OK, at a push.... a piece of fried bread or dry toast to make a bacon, sausage, black pudding and brown sauce half-sandwich. But that's the limit to my starch at breakfast.

fresh, crispy buns

:booty:

I cannot wait for this thread to degenerate into name calling. I'm looking in your direction, Dirl.

:booty:

Yep that's how we roll in Germany.

Wait...what?

 

[lurkingdirk]

fag.

I managed to rub one out whilst reading this thread.

I know. Remagen is the gayest place I've ever been. And I've been up Canal Street in Manchester. Where I was buggered by six guys. But still not as gay as Remagen.

fag.

NO, that comes after breakfast. And after sex. I'm not sure if you have all three..... I think, sex, then breakfast, then fag. If you go sex-fag-breakfast, there's always that chance You Might set fire to your pubes, and there's nothing like a burning bush to put you off your grits.

You, sir, are a fine poster here at FreeOnes. I do take exception to your post, however. Unless you're a novice, it goes sex, fag, breakfast, fag, sex, fag, sex, lunch, drinks.

Grits not to be found in my area. I don't even think my local Denny's offers them. I've had them a few times in my travels and they were okay. Then again I wouldn't know good grits from bad.

I've definitely gone for that. I need to ask her about grits.
