When it comes to quintessential Southern fare, “it was my grandmother’s recipe” usually bodes well—especially when you’re chatting pimiento cheese with Carrie Morey, who co-owns Callie’s Charleston Biscuits with her mother and catering maven, Callie White. Always a hit at parties, the family’s handmade spread finally went retail last summer and is now available at Caviar & Bananas, The Wine Shop, Newton Farms, and all Mount Pleasant Piggly Wiggly locations. Their secret to success: “We keep it simple and don’t mix it too much—you can still see the strands of cheese,” says Morey. Keep an eye out for their brand-new “fiery” version.
