Thanks bear!

Looks really good Jake!! The pimento sounds like a good addition to the burger. I’m a fan of pimento, had it on crackers and a sandwich. I will have to try it on a burger next.

Looking good. Love pimento cheese. Sad that the stuff I can buy now just isn't as good as what we had as kids.

I've been looking for a good recipe for P.C. for a while now, so far I haven't found the taste I remember so well from youth and how it used to taste out of my Granny's kitchen.

Howdy. Cooked up some smashburgers cajun style with pimento and cheese tonight. Turned out delicious. 80/20 ground beef is $8.49lb now btw.

Started out with some thick bacon on the Blackstone. Love the burgers cooked in the bacon grease......

Couple minutes and flipped. Added wifes cajun pimento and cheese(I didnt ask what was in it but tasty as all get out). Reg cheddar for the daughters. Sons are kayaking so hope they enjoy their Beenie weenies.

This was a cajun spicy burger of goodness. Hope everyone is having a smoke filled weekend

Damn Jake, that looks awesome and right in my wheelhouse....did you make the P. Cheese?
I'd love your recipe if you'd share it, I've been on the hunt for a good one for years now.
Man, this thread is making me super hungry.

Those beef prices are nuts, no way in hell would I pay that for burger. Go to Costco or Sam's and buy the cheapest beef you can find and grind it yourself. If you need more fat most butchers or super market meat packers will gladly save you some trim or pure white beef fat ours give it to me free. I bring them smoked salmon or smoked albacore a few times a year and I know them all by name to stay on their good side. I grind either tri tip or brisket or a combo of both and man it is SO much better than any store bought burger I've ever had.
Check it out.

Jake, those burgers look amazing! I saw that Holy Voodoo rub at Academy Saturday, I'll have to pick some up...

Great looking burgers! Love the use of the Meat Church rub, I'm big on them but haven't had the Holy Voodoo yet--guess I gotta order it.

Had a pimento cheese burger myself last night. The college in town has a dairy that sells meat, and one of the things they sell is por-con (could use some work on the name) burgers, which is just a blend of ground pork and bacon. Cooked it high heat on the Camp Chef Woodwind and topped with Palmetto pimento cheese--not as good as the homemade stuff but plenty tasty!

Any chance the wife would share the cheese recipe? Would really like to try these but not sure grocery store pimento cheese would do.

Grind your own - its a game changer and you can grind anything you like. I ground a brisket a month ago for more than half that.

those burgers look KILLER!
