Awesome Buttery Grits with Corn

A local restaurant, Zea's, serves grits as a side dish. This is my version of those grits. No, they aren't for the serious dieter but if you want to treat yourself to an occasional splurge I don't think you will be disappointed. NOTE: You may want to start off just using 1/2 cup of butter. Some people find 1 cup to be a little too much. You can always add more if you like.
