Football season kicks off at the end of August. Try our Sellect Realty Georgia Pimento Cheese recipe for your tailgate fun. Pair the cheese with crackers for an appetizer, or make a delicious grilled cheese sandwich for a quick lunch.
Ingredients
- 16 oz Cream Cheese at room temperature
- 4 1/2 cups Extra-Sharp Cheddar Cheese shredded
- 1 1/4 cups Duke's Mayonnaise
- 1/2 tsp Cayenne Powder
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
- 8 oz Pimento Pepper canned, drained, and roughly chopped
Instructions
- Add all dry ingredients together and blend.
- Add in wet ingredients to the blended dry ingredients, and evenly mix the two together.
- Serve with crackers for an appetizer, or use as cheese for a grilled cheese sandwich.
Step 1: Add the dry ingredients together
Blend the cayenne, garlic powder, and onion powder together in a small bowl. Set aside.
STEP 2: ADD THE "Wet" Ingredients Together
In a separate bowl, add the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and Dukes’ Mayonnaise together.
STEP 3: ADD THE "wet" and dry INGREDIENTS TOGETHER
Evenly distribute the spice mixture with the cheese mixture to make Georgia Pimento Cheese.
Hints:
- We, in Georgia, LOVE Duke’s Mayonnaise. From our Georgia Pimento Cheese, to even chocolate cake, this mayonnaise is our secret weapon to great cooking.
- Shredded cheddar cheese is great, but we also like the texture of rough-cut cheese. It gives our pimento cheese a unique twist, and no bite is the same.
- Try our Georgia Pimento Cheese with club crackers or as a filling for a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich.
