Farmhouse Chef Jamie’s Country Ham Shrimp & Grits Recipe

1 cup Anson Mills yellow or blue grits
1 cup grated Ashe County Pepperjack Cheese
3 tbs unsalted butter
Salt & Pepper to taste
2 tbs olive oil
1 slice chopped Cheshire Country Ham
1 lb. medium shrimp, peeled
1/4 lb shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced
3 minced garlic cloves
½ cup chicken broth

Bring 4 cups water to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and stir in grits. Cook, stirring often, until grits are tender and creamy. This will take about an hour — heirloom grits are slow cookers. Add in more water a half cup at a time and cook longer if the grits aren’t tender. Stir in Ashe County cheese and 1 tablespoon of butter. Season with salt and pepper and cover and set aside.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over and add country ham. Cook until pieces start to curl up a little. Set ham aside for later but reserve cooking fat in skillet.

Toss shrimp with salt and pepper before adding to hot skillet. Cook shrimp until they are bright pink, about 2 minutes. Set shrimp aside with ham. Turn down heat in skillet and add mushrooms and 1 tablespoon of butter. Cook until mushrooms start to get tender. Add garlic and cook until garlic starts to brown. Add chicken broth, and make sure you scrape the bottom of skillet to get the good flavors. Turn up the heat and cook until broth reduces by about half. Return shrimp and ham to skillet. Add in remaining butter and cook (stirring often so nothing sticks) until sauce thickens. Serve over the grits you cooked earlier and garnish with fresh herbs or chopped green onions.

Hominy Corn is an authentic South Carolina-grown hominy corn bred over 150 years ago. (Classic hominy corns have big, round kernels.) We treat this old heirloom the way it likes to be treated: before harvesting, we let the corn dry on the stalks in the field, and then crib it up for a time thereafter so winter drafts can perform their final subtle drying, kernel by kernel. This process develops lovely flavor characteristics that come out brilliantly complex and satisfying when cooked. We’ve worked with dozens of hominy corns but, in our opinion, this is the best one of all.

Who said corn is supposed to be white or yellow? Native Americans and European settlers grew corn in every color of the rainbow, and those colors had deep meaning as well as distinct, diverse flavors and aromas. The corn for Anson Mills Native Fine Blue Corn Grits belongs to the Cherokee Nation in the mountains of the Carolinas. Slow-cooked grits made from this fresh new crop blue corn have the fragrance and taste of mountain terroir and sweet corn, with intriguing background notes of chestnuts. Always soak blue corn grits overnight and use our recipe for Anson Mills Antebellum Coarse Grits. Don’t be tempted to use dairy to cook blue grits, but do whisk butter in at the end.

Our Pepper Jack is the perfect union of mellow Monterey Jack with spicy jalapeños. As the hallmark of Southwestern recipes, it’s the creamy cheese with attitude that livens up everything it touches.

Wayco Cheshire Artisan Ham is a collaboration between two old friends from Wayne County, a farmer’s daughter, and a third-generation ham maker. Cheshire Pork is a special product, we know that forty years of selective breeding has resulted in beautifully marbled pork, and we had a feeling that it would make a great cured and aged ham. That idea appealed to the folks at WayCo Hams in Goldsboro, they have decades of ham making experience, and knew that they could make magic with this pork. The results are what happens when the best pork raised in the state meets time-honored, traditional curing and gaining techniques. The ham is a perfect balance of flavor and texture, not too salty, with a buttery smoothness that makes it very easy to eat. We invite you to taste the difference.
