0.5 (8 ounce) package extra-sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
0.5 (8 ounce) package monterey jack cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)

1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8-1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce (optional)

1. Bring chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
2. Gradually whisk in grits; bring to a boil.
3. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until thickened.
4. Stir in Cheddar cheese, next 5 ingredients, and, if desired, Worcestershire sauce, stirring until cheese melts.

6. Pour grits into a lightly greased 2-quart or 11- x 8-inch baking dish.
