I usually aim for my grits to be creamy but still with a bit of texture—not too runny and not too thick, just right in between. Think smooth and slightly velvety, but with a little bite. Stirring often and using a good ratio of liquid helps a lot! Good luck, and I’m sure you’ll nail it!
The ideal texture for grits depends on your personal preference, but generally, you want them to be creamy and smooth, not dry. The texture should be similar to a thick, smooth porridge.
