Creamy Grits:

Bring water, cream, salt and butter to a boil. Whisk in grits, lower heat to low and cover for 10 minutes until grits thicken.

Barbecue Shrimp:

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add shrimp, and cook for 2 minutes; add half of the beer, worcestershire sauce, Cajun seasoning, black pepper, rosemary, and lemon juice. Cook for 1 minute; flip shrimp over. Stir in garlic and cut the heat off.

Add butter and stir a little at a time until the sauce thickens. If the butter takes a while to melt, place the pan back over low heat. Once the shrimp turn pink and form the shape of a "C," they're done.

Pour grits into a bowl and pour shrimp and sauce over the top; garnish with crab meat and green onions. Feel free to add a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce for more kick.
