Mom mom makes a dank homeade pimento cheese that has very finely grounded pecans and black olives in it. It doesn't change the flavor up a whole bunch but the tiny pieces of pecans adds a nice texture to it

Sooo good

Glad to see this thread still goin' with talk of The Masters.

I like two things in life: Pimento cheese and golf. And I'm all out of golf.

I appreciate all the responses and recommendations on where to get the good stuff, but I'm stuck in fricking Idaho.

You should be able to make it. You're gonna want that liquid the pimentos come jarred in added to the mix. I'm not kidding about that.


People that are saying add jalapeño and such are missing the added flav from that pimento liquid.

Use both the pimento liquid and the jalapenos.

Well if you say so.

I've never had the japs in with pimento cheese. But I love pimento flav. So, not sure if that would ruin it for me. I'll start with a smidgeon at first.

They don't overpower the flavor. It's a complimentary kick. I use fresh. I find that if I roast them, the kick is a little stronger, but roasted has such a grand flavor.

Leblanc's in Gonzales makes P Cheese sandwiches. Obviously, homemade would be better. Love to eat them but feel so guilty because I am 55 pounds overweight and have diabetes.

Agree with this whole thread. No good pimento cheese out there these days.
There is only one and that is from the sweet grass dairy in thomasville, ga. Absolutely amazing craze it whenever I go to the town to visit
Tried to make my own for superbowl and it was okay at best.

Finely chop up pickeld jalapeños and add to your pimento cheese.

Also, a little dash of Tabasco is just right

Well I don't think this thread says there are no good pimiento cheeses out there.

First it's all about where you are from and what you grew up on. Mine is several but for the most part they are shredded cheese, pimentos, pimento juice, mayo, salt and pepper. That's about it. I've had sweet ones that I hate and spicy that were too hot. But, there are some really good ones out there. Central Market, Calandros, Whole Foods all have good ones.

Forty plus years ago when I was learning the basics of cooking that was just a homemade thing not from a store. Cheese straws(a cookie press was used to make them on a cookie sheet pan) kind of item in a cracker like form. They were very tasty for parties held at home.

I tore up a container of pimento cheese last night. It's so addictive! This one was one of the things I brought back from Blackberry Farm. They make theirs with an aged sharp cheddar. They used it to make a dressed up grilled cheese sandwich. I agree... I think it is underused.

Without some Japs in it is just creamy cheese garbage. With Japs in it to the right degree of flavor in it becomes a pleasant ingredient for sandwiches.


The Palmetto Cheese with Japs that we buy, at Costco of all places, is really good to put on sandwiches and burgers.

Toast a piece of bread and then slather some of that Palmetto on it. Put it in the oven on 350 or low broil and it will get melty and puff up a bit from the mayo. Very nice.
