Smokehouse Macaroni and Cheese

"Deliciously creamy comfort food with a twist, this is the best Macaroni and Cheese I've ever tasted, and my family demands it frequently! Recipe can be halved, and should be, if you value your arteries! :) For a very easy way to incorporate some vegetables, steam some broccoli over your pasta-cooking water, and stir it into the casserole or serve alongside - but it's more likely to get eaten if it's already IN the casserole!"

  1. Best macaroni and cheese ever! Everyone loved it!
     
  2. I thought this sounded interesting, and decided to serve it at Thanksgiving to go with our turkey (and for our vegetarian). OMG! This is the best mac and cheese ever. I have never made a homemade recipe I (or my family) and liked it. This was incredible. My husband and 4 boys ate it up. in fact, my husband just asked me to make it for his office Christmas lunch!
     
  3. Outstanding flavor! Definitely a more sophisticated mac & cheese. I love smoked gouda cheese, so I skipped the Velveeta, and used 2 cups of cheddar and 2 cups of smoked gouda. I don't know if many kids would like this, but for adults, this is an excellent choice! Thanx!
     
  4. Made half a recipe but used mozzarella, smoked provolone, colby jack and gouda. Would like it creamier so may add more milk.
     
  5. The best mac and cheese if you love that smoky flavor my favorite so far hands down
