The Ultimate Pimento Cheese Recipe for Your Masters Sunday Party

First In Restoration is the best in Georgia for water damage restoration and mold remediation. We hope you are watching The Masters this weekend but if you are watching water creep across your floor, we’re the pros you call. But let's get to the good stuff. A fun and delicious recipe.

If you're hosting a Masters Sunday party, there’s only one thing you absolutely need on the menu, and that is pimento cheese.

Our Favorite Pimento Cheese (Masters Style)

Everyone has their favorite pimento cheese. Our favorite is from Augusta National and can only be found the week of the Masters on their property. Now, this isn't the actual recipe, but it's a wonderful copycat and it is about as close to the real deal as you can get without sneaking into Augusta’s clubhouse kitchen.

What you’ll need:

• 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (shred yourself: do not buy pre-shredded)

• 1 cup Monterey jack cheese, shredded (shred yourself: do not buy pre-shredded)

• 4-5 oz of softened cream cheese (We like ours creamier and sometimes put the whole brick in - but adjust the seasonings accordingly)

• 1/2 cup of Duke’s mayonnaise (yes, name brand only -- it makes a difference)

• 4 oz. jar of diced pimientos (drained)

• 1 heaping teaspoon of finely minced onion

• 1/4 teaspon of salt

• 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper

• 1/4 teaspooon of cayenne pepper

• 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder

Mix it all together (stir the pimentos in last and fold them in). We like to let it marinate in the fridge for about an hour and then serve. We like for it to be room temperature so it's easier to spread.

How to Serve It

• Classic sandwich: Two slices of soft white bread, no crust.

• Party dip: Pair it with celery sticks, crackers or tortilla chips.

• Snack tray: Add it to your charcuterie board.

• Use your food processor to make it more of a whipped dip if you prefer that type of texture.

Hosting Tip:

We recommend making a double batch of our version of Masters Pimento Cheese—you will run out. And trust us, you don’t want guests putting divots in your drywall trying to lick the bowl clean.
