Steps

  When ready to cook, set Traeger temperature to 450˚F and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes. For optimal results, set to 500˚F if available.

  Make the grits. In a medium cast iron pan over medium-high heat, bring 4 cups of water to a boil and add the salt. Remove from heat and gradually whisk in grits, working out any lumps. Return to heat and stir occasionally until thickened, 8-10 minutes. Stir in the cheddar cheese, cover and keep warm.

• 3

  In a medium bowl, add the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, pepper and stir. Add the shrimp, and toss to coat evenly. Let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes.

• 4

  Assemble the skewers. Remove the shrimp from marinade, discarding the marinade. Build the skewers alternating between mushrooms, peppers, onion, and shrimp. Sprinkle with salt.

• 5

  Place the skewers directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, until shrimp starts to curl, and turns opaque.
