SHANNON'S SMOKY MACARONI AND CHEESE



Shannon's Smoky Macaroni and Cheese image

This recipe is the best Mac & Cheese you'll ever have. It is literally one of 3 meals everyone in my family will eat. The smoked gouda gives this dish its smoky rich flavor. It's a gourmet grown-up version of the kiddie classic. Take any leftovers and cut into bite-sized squares, bread, and deep fry for a yummy snack.

Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
6 tablespoons butter
½ cup all-purpose flour
5 ½ cups milk, divided
2 ½ cups shredded smoked Gouda cheese
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 ½ cups shredded Swiss cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup dry bread crumbs
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fill a pot with lightly-salted water and bring to a boil. Stir the macaroni into the water and return to a boil. Cook and occasionally stir until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain.
  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the flour to the melted butter and whisk continually for 1 to 2 minutes to make a roux. Whisk 2 cups of the milk into the roux until smooth and then add the remaining milk. Raise the heat to medium-high and continue cooking and stirring until thickened, but not boiling. Stir the Gouda, Cheddar, Swiss, and 1 cup Parmesan cheese into the mixture; once the cheeses have melted completely, fold the drained macaroni into the mixture to coat. Pour the macaroni mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Stir 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl; sprinkle over the macaroni. Drizzle the olive oil over the bread crumbs.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Allow to rest 10 minutes before cutting.

Time 4h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) package bacon
1 (12 ounce) package elbow macaroni
2 cups heavy cream
1 (16 ounce) package shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Colby-Jack cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons barbeque rub

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a pizza pan with aluminum foil; lay bacon strips on top.
  • Bake bacon in the preheated oven until browned and crisp, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
  • Drain bacon slices on paper towels and allow to cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Place in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until crumbly.
  • Preheat a smoker to 275 to 300 degrees F (135 to 150 degrees C). Add wood chips according to manufacturer's directions.
  • Mix together cream, Cheddar cheese, Colby-Jack cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, butter, and barbeque rub in the warm pasta pot; add drained macaroni. Mix well and let the cheese melt. Pour into a 9x13-inch aluminum pan and sprinkle bacon on top.
  • Place the pan on the rack in the preheated smoker. Cook until cheese is bubbly, about 3 1/2 hours.

  • Prepare your smoker and heat to 235-240 degrees F using your choice of wood chips. I use hickory as my wood of choice in this recipe.
  • Cook the pasta 1 minute less than the packaged directions so it is very al dente. Make sure you don't overcook the pasta! Remember it is going to cook for another 2 hours. Strain and rinse with cold water, set aside.
  • In a large skillet melt 4 TBSP of butter over medium heat, add the onions and cook until they are just softened. Add the garlic and whisk in the flour, continue whisking, cook for 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and slowly add the milk stirring constantly. Once combined add the Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.

  • Meanwhile, make the cheese sauce: You can make the sauce in a saucepan (easiest but one more dish to clean) or right in a large cast iron skillet that can go straight from stove to smoker.
  • Melt the butter then whisk in the flour until it's smooth. Whisk in the mustard powder. Whisk in the milk and half & half, bring it just to a boil, turn off the heat and stir in the softened cream cheese. Add the shredded cheese in small handfuls and whisk it until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  • Toss the pasta and sauce together until all of the elbow macaroni noodles are coated. If you're using any mix-ins, add them now (see the post for suggestions). Pour the mixture into the pan you're using to go on the smoker.
