In the US, it is often pronounced with the "sh" sound and is shown that way in dictionaries, as /grosh-re/. You can find many articles online arguing about how to say it. As a learner, I'd just pronounce it without the "sh", but be aware you will hear it that way. You will also hear it as both a two and three syllable word, but you should use the two syllable pronunciation.
