Instructions:
PIMENTO CHEESE:
- Simply soften the cream cheese and mix the first 8 ingredients together. Add salt, pepper and cayenne pepper, season to taste.
BUTTERMILK BISCUITS:
- Preheat the oven to 450 ˚F.
- Cut the butter into tiny chunks.
- Place the butter in a bowl, and mix all the other ingredients except the buttermilk into the butter.
- Once you’ve blended everything and it resembles a crumbly powder you can mix in your buttermilk and blend again.
- When it’s all blended, it’s time to form your biscuits. You can either roll them out, create drop biscuits or pat some out with your hands. We like to pat them out by hand.
- Place the biscuits on a greased pan, and cook for about 12 minutes on 450 ˚F.
- While the biscuits are cooking, it’s time to fry the ham. You’ll want to fry it for about 3-5 minutes on each side.
- Once the biscuits are done, slice them, place a half slice of ham on them, spread some pimento cheese over the ham, top with a tomato, and serve.
