Cheese Grits

This is a Kentucky standard, for Derby time especially!!

6 cup water
2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cup grits (regular not quick cook)
1/2 cup butter
3 eggs, well beaten
1 Lb Cheddar Cheese, graded (about 4 cups)
1-3 cloves garlic, minced
Cayenne pepper to taste

Bring water and salt to a rapid boil; gradually stir in grits with a
fork. Cook until all water is absorbed. (25-30 minutes) Stir in
butter bit by bit; carefully add eggs, cheese, garlic, and cayenne
pepper. Put into a greased 2 1/2 qt. casserole; bake at 350 degrees
for 1 hour+ . The recipe that I am sharing says it serves 8, but I
believe it would be a breakfast for 12-15.
