Something I did to add a little bit of grit on a vocal recently was this chain.

Mil Origin (overdriving the tube and using the transformer) -> GML compressor (for transparent compression) -> Distressor (1:1, but with 3rd harmonic distortion and the input cranked) -> api eq

All this nicely colored and probably saved an otherwise questionable vocal. I really like the Distressor/tube combination.
