Pimento Cheese & Biscuits.

I’m not sure why it took me nearly 50 years to learn about this pairing, but now that I know it’s my duty and honor to share the love. Thank you Garden & Gun Magazine for schooling me on the best culinary invention since sliced bread. Promise me, you’ll make these biscuits. And, then share the love, too! Take a basket to a neighbor or invite them for brunch. I have it on good authority pimento cheese biscuits pair well with a fizzy glass of Prosecco.
