Celebrate the Masters Pimento Cheese Sandwich Culinary Tradition in Style

In celebration of the Masters Tournament approaching, the Robert Trent Jones Pro Shop is paying tribute to the great culinary tradition of the pimento cheese sandwich. When you stop by the Robert Trent Jones Pro Shop you will see Criquet golf polos and Imperial hats that have the pimento cheese sandwich embroidery, along with a recipe card to take with you!  
(The recipe is listed below as well.)

The pimento cheese sandwich spread has been served at the Masters concession stands for decades. This southern staple made its way into Augusta National golf tournament concessions and soon became a tasty, low-price lunch tradition for all who watch. 

Criquet is a brand where inspiration often comes from the iconic shirts they recollect from the past as well as the occasional vintage store treasure. The old-school feel, unique styles, and high-quality fabrics made for a great pairing to honor this Masters tradition at the Robert Trent Jones Pro Shop. They come in a variety of colors such as green, white, yellow, and striped. 

These soft Criquet polos can be paired with lightweight Imperial true fit hats. Celebrate this tradition when you dress to play a round of golf at one of the three championship golf courses at Palmetto Dunes Resort, while you wear it watching The Masters and then make your own homemade pimento cheese sandwich!
