Directions

  1. Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Spread butter onto one side of each slice of bread.
  2. Top 4 slices of bread with pimiento cheese, bacon and pickled jalapenos. Top with remaining slices of bread.
  3. Place sandwiches in a preheated skillet or on the griddle and cook on one side until golden-brown, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until bread is golden-brown and cheese is melted. Serve immediately.

Recipe Tip: Add slices of juicy, ripe tomatoes for a summery twist on this delicious sandwich.
