- 3/4 tsp. sriracha chili sauce
- 1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix all ingredients except bread and butter until well combined. Refrigerate 2 hours to let flavors meld. (Makes about 2 cups. Pimiento cheese can be stored in refrigerator up to one week.) Bring to room temperature before using.
- Spread 1/4 cup of the pimiento cheese on each of 4 slices of bread. Top each with another slice of bread. Spread 1 1/2 teaspoon of the butter on 1 side of each sandwich.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Place 2 sandwiches, butter side down, in skillet. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, until golden brown. While first side is cooking, spread 1 1/2 teaspoon of the butter on other side of each sandwich. Turn sandwiches and cook 3 to 4 minutes, until second side is crispy and golden brown and cheese has melted. Repeat with remaining 2 sandwiches.
