A little bit of grit and a whole lot of soul! Watch more of this iconic dish here → https://youtu.be/Dkvaja0MyC8
Yall won't say it BUT I WILL….. NICOLE BIG LINE BACKER BACK HAVING ASS is FULL OF HATE & JEALOUSY ‼️🗣🤌🏾 Thereee…..
The first white lady be hating on everything. That's so annoying
Carrie is an absolute Doll!! More of that genuine charm and character please ❤
Sweet grits are good just not with shrimp and grits. There’s a time and a place
That Mexican street corn one sounds CRAZY but for some reason I wanna taste it lol
Carrie gotta be a chef or something or she’s an extreme foodie lol
Carrie not only knowing regions but states is CRAZY. Creole influence and she could’ve easily said Louisiana but still knew the correct state.
Old does not belong on shrimp and grits.
Man grilled and sautéed shrimp be so juicy if you know what your doing of course
Please leave Nicole racist but at home. She honestly shouldn't have tied she purposely gave low scores….
That last one is the winner HANDS DOWN! I just want a little bit 😭
Don’t agree with the boat it shouldn’t have been a tie. The last lady this look the best Ella the lady Nicole had too many negative comments. I don’t think she voted correct
Well, we ALL know which one was the NANCY on this panel… Full of herself … and Negative about everyone else's dish!
I want carries recipe
Aunts and aunties both did amazingly. It worried me when they started with the criticism, but then they gave fair scores. However, Carrie and Elle were by far my favorites. That is the vibe I am hoping to achieve one day. Such beautiful ladies
Orange top lady was nasty 😖, lowballing so she could win
Do she need that?? Does Nicole need that???
Is it thick like oatmeal or is it too milky? Just hating. 😒
3:55 girl what ?! 😂😂😂
That old bay helped Nicole. All she had to do was cook the grits to people’s liking. Old Bay is an all in one seasoning. She’s didn’t cook shrimp and grits, she made Shrimp and grits.
I hope Nicole doesn't represent the attitude of people from Maryland. You tasted a ten and gave it a six so you could win. Hater… "I'm from Maryland and only we know how to cook shrimp."
I’m glad I’m not the only one who rolled her eyes every time Nicole opened her mouth 😂😂
I thought Nicole’s special ingredient was vodka bc she certainly sounds drunk.
Nicole is a hatin' ssA B**ch.
Elle was a delight.
I actually loved this cast. I don’t think Nicole was too much of a hater 😂 She clearly has a strong shrimp preference as a “Maryland Native.”
nicole, you purposely low-balled everyone else. don't act all surprised and humble. 🙄
That Maryland lady should never be invited back!!! She’s so unfair and a spoiled sport!
Nicole giving shorty elote grits a 7 , but lowballing steep competition down to a 6 is diabolical.
Nicole is clearly a liar and a Karen she ate the entire bowl and rated a 3 😂
