Smoking some ribs today. Anyone have a good baked or smoked Mac recipe?

I’m in a hurry so I posted it here

I knew you lived in a trailer

Lol, modular man, modular.

Sorry, my recipe consists of stirring all the odds and ends of cheese I have into a pot of cooked macaroni until I can barely get the spoon out. Sometimes I add tomatoes or even cooked burger. Schmear the mix into a buttered baking dish, cover with foil, and bake awhile. Might add extra butter and/or top with grated parmesan. Recently I discovered that a block of cream cheese stirred into the hot macaroni before the other cheeses doesn’t hurt.

Warning: This is not a low-fat food😱

Lotsa ways to go. Easiest and perhaps most appropriate for BBQ (in my opinion) might just be melting Velveeta with heavy cream and some beer. Salt and pepper. Jalapeño goes well in it if you are so inclined. I don’t have any ratios for you but it isn’t rocket science. Get the cheese sauce to the consistency you like, fold in the warm pasta.

I usually do the mash up odds and ends thing too. I avoid heavy whipping cream, too rich. Need a nice crisp on top. Just thought I’d get other ideas.

Where all the black wimmin’s at?

Adding a can of cream of mushroom soup isn't a bad thing either

Stauffers for the win.

They will never know.....

Melt some butter, maybe half a stick. Stir in bread crumbs, grated parmesan, black pepper. Schmear on the top and leave the foil off until it browns a bit. You can also top that with some grated cheddar to boot.

Did I warn you that it's not low fat?

Like Hell they won’t. The macaroni is mushy, the “cheese” nasty.

You put enough beer into the guests and hickory smoke into the Mac and cheese and you will be up for a James Beard award by sundown.

Nothing at all wrong with a box of Kraft Mac and Cheese (as long as a person's nose isn't pointed too high into the sky).

The only guests we get are children and grandchildren, and they are well-schooled about good eats.

It’s Mac n cheese, how snooty can it get?

Make it any way ya want.

Just shake some Slap Ya Mama on it before eatin.

I, personally don’t get myself into a bind over such last minute things.

You should have been up at 6am and already had it prepped and then for a couple of hours let sit in the smoker with the meat and soak up some smoky flavor as it bakes.

You can do this in crockware, alum foil dish liners or pyrex.

I’m in a bind? Lmao

No potato salad?
