I've gone crazy over Pimiento Cheese lately, or as they say in the South, "puminner cheese."
My favorite recipe so far (good with any real cheddar):
16 ounces aged white cheddar
1 (2-ounce) jar diced pimientos, drained
6 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
Grate the cheddar by hand. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir lightly to mix. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving. Serve with crackers
If you have it in your area, Dukes is by far the best mayo.
