Big thanks to Harry Alvis (h_alvis) for sharing this recipe with the community!
If you've never had pimento cheese, you're missing out. Those of us who grew up in the South have probably had it at every family gathering. It's nice to see its popularity is growing in other places as well!
This recipe, submitted by Harry Alvis, is as original as they come - with a small twist. Feel free to adjust it as you wish - after all, you know what you and your people like.
So, let's do this! First, drain the pimento peppers, and remove the cores. If you can't find pimentos in your area, you can substitute with any other sweet pepper.
Next, add all of the ingredients to your food processor. If you want some more of that Dirty Bird flavor, adjust how much rub you add. Our suggestion is making a batch with 2 teaspoons, and adjusting on the next batch.
Fire up the blender and purée until it reaches your desired consistency. If you like yours with some chunks of pimento, blend for a slightly shorter time.
And that's all there is to it! Serve your dirty bird pimento cheese on crackers or veggies, or spread it on a sandwich. Or just eat a spoonful on its own, you're an adult!
You can keep the pimento cheese in a closed container & in the fridge for about a week, before you make your next batch. Enjoy!
And once again, thanks to Harry Alvis (h_alvis) for sharing this recipe with everyone.

These Deviled Eggs with Honey Killer Bee Crispy Bacon take a classic appetizer and give it a serious BBQ twist. Creamy, rich egg yolk filling gets mixed with mayonnaise, yellow mustard, finely chopped dill pickles, red onion, and Kosmos Q Dirty Bird Rub for a thick, flavor-packed bite.
This Creamed Corn takes sweet corn and turns it into a rich, creamy side dish packed with buttery flavor and a savory kick from Kosmos Q Double Pepper Cow Cover. Fresh or frozen corn simmers in heavy cream, cream cheese, and butter before getting finished with Parmesan for an extra layer of cheesy goodness.
This Fire Roasted Salsa Verde takes fresh tomatillos, jalapeños, poblanos, onion, and garlic and turns them into a smoky, flavor-packed salsa that's perfect for just about anything. Everything gets tossed with olive oil and Kosmos Q Garlic Jalapeño Rub, then roasted over high heat until blistered, tender, and lightly charred.
Everyone wishes that they could have award-winning competition BBQ at their backyard barbecue parties. With Kosmo's BBQ, that's exactly what you'll have, every time.
