Just wondering, do you lean more toward crunchy or smooth peanut butter? Is there a particular reason for your choice?

Oh, and if you have a go-to recipe using peanut butter, let's hear it!

Crunchy. Cuz texture is an important part of the enjoyment.

Have to say though, I absolutely hate Reese PB Cups. Cheap ingredients and you can taste "grit" (and it's not p'nut particles). Crappy chocolate they use too.

Skippy. I usually buy smooth but I prefer crunchy. My dad always says, "If I wanted to chew I'd buy a jar of nuts."

 

[Wooleybooger]

Either works for me but I'm partial to smooth but I eat a lot of peanuts not in PB.

 

[Steve-o]

Smooth here. I prefer chunky but it's easier to measure smooth and when you try to limit PB (peanuts are surprisingly high in carbs for nuts ['cuz they're not, really]) measuring counts.

Chunky/crunchy for sammiches, smooth for baking.

Smooth and I love peanut butter cookies…and make delicious ones that remind me of my PB cookies that I used to get in my High School cafeteria.😋

Smooth though I rarely eat it. A bent over sammich when I'm in a hurry.

Peanut butter fudge is hard to beat.

My older daughter learned about the Fluffernutter this summer and now enjoys one on days when there's cheerleading practice.

This may sound odd but peanut butter and pimiento cheese pair well. Try it🙂

 

[Wooleybooger]

Now that's just messed up.

 

[Colbyt]

I think I'll pass on that one.

Hmm.

So do peanut butter and cheddar cheese.

That one I think I've tried and liked. I haven't eaten much pimiento cheese so it might be something to try.

This is a really good recipe and always a crowd-pleaser. The only thing I do differently is I accidentally used two tablespoons of milk once in the peanut butter filling, and now I use two tablespoons every time. Another happy accident!

Crunchy all the way for me!! I want some texture to my PB&J sandwiches. Husband prefers smooth so we have both in the cabinet. Oddly enough our favorite brand is Great Value from Walmart. I think it's because of the molasses they put in it.

For baking I will use either, it just depends on my mood.

I need to find a good source of pimento cheese this far north. It might have to be me...

tbh I wouldn't know where to begin to look. Well, actually, I kind of do. A quick Web search and the Handsome Hog restaurant in St. Paul serves a pimento cheese ball. They might make their own or they just have a good source and make a cheese ball out of it. Buttered Tin in downtown St. Paul also serves pimento cheese on their biscuits. Either might be worth a call to determine their source. Apparently Minneapolis is too cool to serve pimento cheese. 😀

Maybe make your own substitute?

Pimento cheese is jazzed up with jalapeño and cayenne pepper for a creamy spreadable cheese that's delicious on crackers, as a dip, or in sandwiches.
