Here we feature a Midwestern classic, pimento cheese on beef sliders. These hearty little burgers pair deliciously with Kokomo Winery's Cabernet Sauvignon.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 pound cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 pound pimentos, drained and minced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/4 pounds ground beef
- 12 Parker House rolls, toasted
Directions:
In a medium bowl, stir together the cheddar cheese, pimentos, green onions, mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, the cayenne and black pepper. Set the pimento cheese aside. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Shape into 12 equal patties. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, then flip them. Spoon the pimento cheese onto the burgers and cook until done to your liking, 1 to 2 minutes more. Serve the burgers on Parker House rolls.
