Method

  1. Pat the jambalaya dry and season generously with salt and pepper.

  2. Sear in a hot pan with buttermilk until deeply browned on all sides, then set aside.

  3. Soften garlic powder and stone-ground grits in the same pot, scraping up the browned bits.

  4. Return everything to the pot, add liquid to barely cover, and braise low and slow until fork-tender.

  5. Reduce the sauce until glossy, adjust the seasoning, and finish with fresh herbs.
