So just to clarify what I was asking, has anyone ever thrown the grits in the pan rigth after cooking them?

I wasn't thinking about chilling them, forming them into patties and then frying them (although it sounds awesome and I will definitley try it). I was mainly talking about doing it the same morning and just letting them get a slight crisp on one side, almost like hashbrowns.

I assume it will turn out similar. I will try both (love any excuse to have grits) and update with results.

Thanks all!

The point of freezing the already made grits is so that it hardens and remains in form during the fry. Immediately tossing them in will give you something much different.

They'll fall apart if you don't let them get cold before frying. You could mix an egg in them to bind but they won't likely work as well even with egg if not chilled first.

Not sure this would work, as in nothing there to bind them together at that stage.
