In addition to recipes, the Anson Mills Web site has some really good general information and tips on cooking techniques.

This is just me, but I would stay simple with the grit's preparation and do a salt, pepper and butter version so you get a good taste of the grits because it sounds like you have a good product. Maybe a dash of cayenne pepper, and don't skimp on the butter, but just cook them for a long time and let the good corn flavor come through. I always think it's a good idea to start simple and next time you can add cheese or something.
For the topping, the Anson Mills website has a good shrimp and grits recipe that I recommend.

Awesome! What kind of grits do you have and what are you planning to do with them? The basic is slow cooking them in salted water with a lot of butter cooked in, but there are lots of great variations.

I tried to send a pix (this is my first time here too)
They are Palmetto Farms, white stone ground grits, I'd like to use local shrimp and something red n spicy.
