The theme for this weekend’s belated holiday party was Mardi Gras. For me this is another excuse to make a gumbo and a creole. The story though, is about the appetizers. I was gifted a marvelous recipe book called Deep South Parties by Robert St. John. I have used this “cocktail” recipes for occasions other than a Southern theme but their authenticity is undeniable.
This post shares a Grilled Pimento Cheese recipe. What makes this grilled cheese so unique is the flavors brought together with the cheese mixture and the roasted red peppers. The miniature sandwiches also make for a good look and a fun party nibble.
Recipe

What an awesome twist on classic grilled cheese! That picture is stellar; those sandwiches are seriously picture-perfect!
You are sweet and funny and you know my wife is in good shape. 90% of the time I make my own rubs. Really easy to do. The Milwaukee rub was a spice I bought at a cool shop in Evanston and wanted to finish it off.
