    Famous Masters Pimento Cheese

    Masters patrons know that going to the tournament is not just about golf. It's also about the food, especially the famous pimento cheese. The Augusta National Golf Club is a first-class act that always delivers in every aspect of their patron's visits and this includes the food. Our family jokingly says if Augusta National ran our government, we would have the best-run country in the world.

    We strategically pace our eating on the days we go to the tournament. We want to be sure we get all our favorite sandwiches, such as their famous pimento cheese, Egg Salad Sandwich, and Chicken Salad On Brioche Bun. Of course, for dessert, we always get a Peach Ice Cream Sandwich.

    Masters Pimento Cheese Recipe History

    Masters Consession Table With Pimento Cheese Sandwich and Beer

    For over 40 years, a local caterer named Nick Rangos from nearby Aiken, South Carolina made the Masters’ famous pimento cheese. He was a local, so to speak, and made all the pimento cheese spread himself. As a kid, this is the Masters pimento cheese sandwich I grew up loving to eat every spring break walking the Masters course. 

    Then in 1998, the club switched contracts and began using Wife Saver, our favorite local fried chicken restaurant chain. They had been making the fried chicken sandwiches for years at the Masters.

    The rumor is Mr. Rango refused to share his original recipe after holding the contract with the Masters for over 40 years. Wife Saver began to try and recreate Rangos’ pimento cheese. Wife Savers owner, Mr. Godfrey, and team presented several batches to Augusta National but could not get the recipe to taste like Mr. Rangos. 

    Something was missing to create the same southern sandwich spread. 

    Luckily, a woman who worked for the tournament had frozen a batch of the original the year prior. My Godfrey got back to recipe testing and finally hit on a recipe that seemed identical to Mr. Rango's original spread.

    However, here we go again, the National tried making it in-house. Today's sandwiches (2022) do not have the same flavor or consistency as what I remember the originals had. They are still good, but I want to taste the original recipe. After all, Augusta National is all about traditions! 

    Why This Masters Pimento Cheese Recipe Is Authentic 

    This Masters pimento cheese recipe is authentic because it was created using the Masters ingredient list on their bag. Luckily for all of us, I brought home sandwiches for a late-night snack after a day on the course in 2016. I spent some time double-checking my own copycat recipe, ingredient by ingredient, to be sure the pimento spread was the closest I could make it to the original pimento cheese sandwich recipe I remembered eating at the Masters golf tournament as a kid.

    Ingredients In Masters Pimento Cheese Spread

    Ingredents for Masters Pimento Cheese Copycat recipe

    What makes this pimento cheese so go is the simplicity of the ingredients. There is no fluff or fancy fillers, just high-quality cheese, classic mayonnaise, a dash of seasoning, and perfect-sized pimiento pieces.

    What type of cheese

    For the best flavor, I suggest you purchase your cheese in blocks. When you are ready to make your spread, shred your cheese on a small grater setting. If you are in a pinch for time, you can buy a good quality, already fine-graded cheese.

    • Cheddar Cheese: It's important to use yellow sharp cheddar cheese. The contrast with the smooth cream cheese is essential. 
    • Monterey Jack Cheese: Jack cheese has a mild flavor with a hint of sweetness. Be sure to purchase quality cheese. Cheap store brands are less robust in taste. 
    • Cream Cheese: Purchase regular cream cheese, not whipped or low-fat cream cheese varieties.  Be sure to allow it to soften to room temperature before stirring it into the mixture.

    Tip: Make It Authentic

    • The Masters does not have cream cheese lumps in their spread, so to make an authentic spread, it is very important to allow your cream cheese to come to room temperature before mixing it with the other cheeses.
    • Also, be sure your shredded cheddar cheese and Monterey jack are not warm and soft. You do not want these two types of cheese to emulsify into the spread. You can see pieces of white and yellow shredded cheese in the original pimento cheese. 

    Best Mayo for Pimento Cheese

    Mayonnaise: southerners are passionate about their mayonnaise. The ingredients on the sandwich bag did not name any specific mayo. However, because of the type of oil and other ingredients, they most likely use an excellent quality mayo such as Duke's Real Mayonnaise.

    🏆 If you think there is a better southern mayo, share your favorites with me in the comments below. 

    Seasoning In Masters Pimento Cheese Spread

    Onion: Onion is listed as an ingredient. However, when eating a concession stand Pimento Cheese, it is not apparent there is onion in the spread. I suggest dicing your onions very small for the most authentic-tasting spread. The size of rice grains would be good. 

    Garlic: The ingredient list on the bag says garlic powder. Be sure you do not use garlic salt.

    Cayenne pepper: Cayenne is listed as an ingredient. However, there is no spice or heat when you eat a Masters pimento cheese sandwich. Be sure only to use a pinch. 

    Salt and black pepper: It is not evident by sight there is black pepper in the recipe. The spread does not taste salty. Just a pinch of each. 

    How To Make Masters Pimento Cheese

    For the most authentic-tasting copycat recipe, be sure to review the ingredient tips above.

    1. Begin by combining all the ingredients except the diced pimentos into a medium size bowl. 

    ⭐️ Tip: The cream cheese needs to be at room temperature, so your spread will be creamy without lumps.

    2. Mix with a large wooden spoon until the pimento spread is smooth and creamy. 

    3. Next, drain the pimentos in a fine mesh strainer. Discard the juice.

    4. Carefully fold in the drained pimentos into the cheese mixture.

    5. The mixture should be smooth and creamy.

    Assembling The Sandwich

    🔑 Ok, I'm giving you the key to make the most authentic Masters Golf Tournament pimento cheese sandwiches. The pimento cheese spread must be served between two slices of fresh, soft white bread.

    1. Lay two slices of bread on your cutting board. Scoop 1/3 cup of the pimento cheese onto the slice of white bread.
    2. Using the back of your spoon or a butter knife, spread the pimento cheese evenly over the bread slices up to the edges of the crust. 
    3. Cut the sandwich in half to form two triangles. 
    4. Place the sandwich in a green wrapper. I like to use these green sandwich bags. Again, the green bag makes it authentic. 

    Recipe Ideas Using Masters Pimento Cheese

    Making a triple batch of this cheese spread is a good idea. Besides the beloved pimento cheese sandwich, you can use this secret recipe spread to make other great recipes.

    • Pimento Cheese Crackers: Using the Masters Pimento Cheese Spread, you can make these delicious crackers. These homemade crackers are perfect for serving as an appetizer with an Azalea Cocktail or enjoying as a savory snack while watching the Masters tournament.

    • Spicy Pimento Cheese Recipe: A southern classic is Pawleys Island Palmetto Cheese with Jalapenos. To create this copycat recipe, make a batch of this Masters Pimento Cheese. Then dice some of my Cowboy Canday: aka Pickled Jalapenos. and add them to the pimento cheese spread. These sweet and spicy chopped jalapenos are delicious mixed into this spread. Eat it on crackers, make sandwiches, dip it with veggie sticks, or top a grilled burger with it. It's a spicy southern classic you will want to make again and again! 

    Make Ahead Party Instructions

    If you are hosting a Masters Watch Party, this pimento cheese recipe is easy to make a few days before the party. 

    1. Mix up the recipe according to the recipe card directions.
    2. Place the cheese spread into an airtight container with a tight-fitting lid.  
    3. Place a piece of washi tape on the lid with the date made written on it. Put the spread in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. 

    🎉 Party Tip: After refrigerating the spread, allow the pimento cheese to soften on the counter for 20 minutes or so. A room-temperature soft spread will make it easier to spread on fresh bread. 

    Can you freeze pimento cheese dip?

    You can freeze pimento cheese. To keep the full flavor, be sure it is in a freezer container with a tight-fitting lid. Mark the date you put it in the freezer. It is best to only freeze pimento cheese for up to 3 months for full flavor. 

    Tip: To thaw frozen pimento cheese, place it in the refrigerator for 24 hours to thaw.

    I have a variety of copycat recipes that I enjoy making during Masters Week to serve with this classic pimento cheese recipe. I always make concession stand food to recreate the experience of being at the Masters while we watch the tournament at home on the TV or on the Masters live internet channel.

    Fun Facts About The Masters Golf Tournament Pimento Cheese

    Pimento Cheese Sandwich at the Augusta National Golf Course

    This iconic Master's Pimento cheese sandwich has a history all its own. The sandwich has rumors surrounding its recipe, the low price is intriguing, and the status of being the best-loved sandwich year after year at the Masters. 

    Augusta's Sandwich Scandal

    If you want to learn more history about the famous sandwich recipe served at the Augusta Masters, head on over to the Gastro Obscura. I was interviewed in their article, The Sandwich Scandal at the Heart of the World’s Greatest Golfing Event. Luke Fater captures the essence of the pimento cheese scuttlebutt. The Masters is an "event so wedded to perfection, so shrouded in its own tradition, is surely one of the last places you’d expect to find successive episodes of food-based spite politics. Yet here we are."

    Why do pimento cheese sandwiches cost $1.50 at the Masters?

    Masters Concession Stand Sandwiches, All Wrapped In Green

    In my interview with Yahoo, I share with you my expertise on the $1.50 pimento cheese sandwich. When golf patrons visit the Masters tournament for the first time, they can not believe how inexpensive concession stand food is. Most sporting events jack up food prices to an unbelievably high price because they know they have a captive buyer.

    However, Augusta National concession stand prices are always low and the food is always fantastic. They serve in simple bulk style to keep prices so low as a service to their patrons, the average joe like you and I. For a mere $1.50, you can enjoy the famous pimento cheese sandwich. 

    🥇 Augusta National focuses on perfection, not big and showy but simple perfection in every tiny detail, just like this pimento cheese sandwich recipe.

    What is the official sandwich at the Masters?

    The pimento cheese is known as the official Masters sandwich because golf patrons purchase it more than any others served. It's been this way for over 40 years. Golf fans love pimento cheese!

      the Masters pimento cheese does not use Duke's mayo. On the ingredient list on the wrapper, the mayo has lemon juice in it. Dukes does not have lemon juice as its acid. it has vinegar.

        Not if you’re looking at the same wrapper I am on this page. The Mayo listed on the wrapper has vinegar, not lemon juice. Could be Duke’s, could also be a restaurant brand.

          No self-respecting Southerner would EVER use anything but Dukes Mayonnaise. The taste and texture is NOT like Hellman's and obvious in a New York Second. I suggest anyone who is trying to brake the recipe go back and try the recipe with Dukes and then let a Southerner try it. I bet they will call it "perfect."

            I 100 % agree with you, William. Love my Dukes mayo! This is a copycat recipe though. The original recipe from Wife Savers is lost, and others have tried to copy and serve it at masters for years. On the National's wrapper ingredients list in 2014, they list the following for the mayo in the sandwich: soybean oil, distilled vinegar, egg yolks, water, sugar, salt, calcium disodium EDTA, and natural flavoring. Glancing on the Dukes ingredients = soybean oil, egg yolks, water distilled, cider vinegar, salt oleoresin, EDTA (protects flavor) Bit different but...... who knows.

        2. Does this recipe (assuming you made and tried it) taste similar to the one you remembered eating at the Masters?

        If you’re pimentos have a lot of juice I would say yes. But I wouldn’t worry about getting it completely drained. The Augusta National’s is very creamy so a good bit of mayo and juice won’t hurt achieving this

      What type of Swiss Cheese? How do you define Swiss cheese? Is that a type of cheese in USA or is that cheese with holes in? You surely don’t mean cheese from Switzerland, they have more than one type.

I can my own sweet and spicy jalapenos called Cowboy Candy. I add two or three tablespoons of diced cowboy candy to my batch of pimento cheese and it becomes addictive. lol

        Susan, absolutely it can be mixed up the day before. Just keep in an airtight container in the fridge. Augusta National has so many sandwiches sold each day that they make the sandwiches up ahead and keep them ready to be taken to each concession stand. I think this is a key as to why they are so good. The white bread stays soft from the spread. They keep them individually wrapped in their green wrappers.

        Hey David, The Masters has "onions" on their ingredient list. You can not see or taste fresh onions when you eat the pimento cheese so I suggest slicing it really thin and then chop into small pieces. Make it a few hours before you plan on eating it so the fresh onion will infuse throughout the spread.
