Geechie Boy Mill's 24-Ounce Bag of Deliciously Speckled Grits

Frank P: Okay, I admit it I'm a yankee from CT. Never had grits until my Dad was stationed in the South. Can't say I fell in love but they were alright. Many years later I was doing Humanitarian relief in Haiti. I had a bowl of Haitian style grits and fell in love with the hearty, coarse but tasty flavor. For a while I was able to find "Haitian Style' grits in the greater tri-state area. Then Covid came and I lost my source. Finally after many attempts and many sky hooks into the trash, I ordered Geechie Boy ... Yes finally. This is the real deal. So good, soo filling. BTW, Geechie Boy is now Marsh Hen Mills Speckled Grits. I guess the family needed a more common name. I know geechie but I don't speak it. Again, being a military brat allowed me to experience Geechie and Creole culture. Nothing like fried catfish, okra and stewed tomatoes. But I digress, I can highly recommend these grits. They'll never be Polenta /with black truffles and parmigiana reggiano. but they are not trying to be either.
Try them.

PapaKins: Since no real Southerner would even consider instant grits and will, at best, tolerate quick grits, Geechie Boy grits fill the bill for a great breakfast.

These grits are a mixture of white and yellow corn that provides the perfect combination of bite and sweet corn taste.

Geechie Boy (now Marsh Hen Mill) grits cook in about 20 - 25 minutes and are worth the wait. While generally regarded as breakfast fare, these make an excellent base for shrimp and grits.

When I make too many servings for breakfast, I put them in a shallow baking dish and refrigerate to use as grits cakes the next morning.

Over all, these are a true Southern treat.

Carol Willard: Our family favorite. Not at all cheap but they are so much more delicious than what you get at the regular grocery store.

I don't have a dog: I love these grits. Great taste and texture. They remind me of the Speckled Heart Grits for Callaway Gardens which were the only decent grits I ever had until I found Geechie Boy Mill.
