A true and delicious Southern classic and the homemade beats the commerical brand hands-down. Thanks so much - great post!

Oh yeah - pimiento cheese is so good! Have you ever been to the Varsity in Atlanta, and ordered a pimiento cheese steak - walkin'? AKA - hamburger made with pimiento cheese, for those who don't know.
Great recipe! Thank you for posting

This is so similar to mine....I add some cream cheese to mine...it just gives it a creamier consistency......Love your recipe


You can not beat the homemade! I keep some in the frig.


I love pimento cheese spread and my entire family does. Thanks! :-)


This is the best recipe. I use Mild Cheddar and Jack, and when I don't have a fresh jalapeno, I use the minced jarred jalapenos. This is delicious, delicious!
