For the best flavor, use high-quality, extra-sharp Cheddar cheese.
Duke's mayonnaise is recommended for its tangy flavor, but any good-quality mayonnaise will work.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to suit your spice preference.
To make a smoother spread, you can use a food processor, but be careful not to over-process, as it can become too liquidy.
For a chunkier spread, hand-shred the cheese instead of using pre-shredded cheese.

    I made this for a party, and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it. I used pepper jack cheese for an extra kick.

  • Brooks Davis

    This recipe is fantastic! The perfect balance of creamy and spicy. I added a pinch of smoked paprika for extra depth.

  • Viola Windler

    So easy to make, and tastes so much better than store-bought. I'll never buy pimento cheese again!

  • Rubye Koelpin

    The cayenne pepper is what makes this recipe special! Don't skip it if you like a little heat.

  • Andreane Hermiston

    Great base recipe! I like to add a little bit of chopped green onion and a dash of hot sauce to mine.
