Smoked Mac and Cheese Is Perfect for All Your Summertime Barbecue Needs
This smoked macaroni and cheese recipe is more of a how-to. While I use prepared mac and cheese for ease, by all means use homemade if you choose–it will only be that much better. This takes on smoke flavor quickly and compliments smoked ribs, chicken, and brisket. Stick it on the smoker in the last hour of smoke time on your meat. By the time the meat is rested, this is ready to go.
Ingredients
- 1 package macaroni and cheese , 20 ounce
- 1 slice merican cheese , quartered
Instructions
-
1
Preheat an electric smoker to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C), and add wood chips according to manufacturers' directions. Use any wood chips that you would use for smoking meat.
-
2
If prepared macaroni and cheese is not already in a heatproof dish, spoon it into a dish that can sit directly on the rack of a smoker. Divide cheese slices over the top.
-
3
Place the dish directly on the rack of the smoker, and smoke until hot and bubbly, about 1 1/2 hours. Serve immediately.

The Labor Day Burger
Enjoy the end of summer with a burger with kick with The Labor Day Burger, my own creation. The bacon grease acts as a 'glue' and will cook out on the grill, leaving the flavor in the beef. Excellent with grilled portobello caps! Note: this is a flammable burger due to the grease. It requires constant attention when grilling due to flare-ups.
Mayan Hot Chocolate
Don't knock it till you've tried it. This rich, delicious, and kicky hot chocolate might make you abandon your traditional ties. No marshmallows needed; this is for grown-ups. Everything in this recipe can be altered to suit your taste, however I recommend following the recipe to the letter the first time you try.
