Chef Justin Beckett wishes he had found pimento cheese earlier in life. This recipe is fantastic as a spread or dip. Serve pimento cheese with chips, crackers, toast points, or even as little tea sandwiches. Pimento cheese can be made days in advance and kept in your fridge. Chef Beckett often makes a big batch and places it into mason jars as a gift for neighbors and friends and, as you can imagine, he is a pretty popular guy after that. Make his recipe and order a meal from Southern Rail or Beckett’s table for Devour at Home!
