Mac 'N Cheese with Bacon and Cheese Recipe courtesy Tyler Florence

Kosher salt
1 pound elbow macaroni
4 cups milk
2 or 3 sprigs thyme
4 cloves garlic, smashed and divided
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
5 1/2 cups shredded sharp white Cheddar
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
4 slices bacon, cut crosswise into thin strips
1 large onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, smashed
Leaves from 1/4 bunch fresh thyme

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the macaroni and cook for 8 to 9 minutes, until al dente. Drain.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a small saucepan heat the milk with the thyme sprigs and 2 garlic cloves. Melt the butter in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly, to keep lumps from forming. Strain the solids out of the milk and whisk it into the butter and flour mixture. Continue to whisk vigorously, and cook until the mixture is nice and smooth. Stir in the 4 cups of the cheese and continue to cook and stir to melt the cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cooked macaroni and the parsley and fold that all in to coat the macaroni with the cheese mixture. Scrape into a 3-quart baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.

While that bakes, heat a saute pan. Add the bacon, render the fat and cook until crispy. Add onion, garlic and thyme leaves and cook for about 5 minutes to soften the onion. Season with salt and pepper.

To serve, scatter the bacon mixture over the mac and cheese. Use a big spoon to scoop out servings, making sure you get some of the smoking bacon mixture on each spoonful.

Mac & Cheese
From Scratch with Real Cheese

2 Tablespoons butter
1 Tablespoon flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon salt
pinch of nutmeg (optional)
pinch of pepper (optional)
12 oz. sharp cheddar cheese
1 lb macaroni, cooked & drained

Melt the butter in a meduim saucepan on medium heat. Watch the butter until it stops bubbling -- this means the water is evaporated. Add the flour and whisk into the butter. Cook it until it is golden, whisking to remove any lumps.

Heat the milk in the microwave until hot but not boiling. Pour the milk a bit at a time into the pot, whisking it into the butter. Continue doing this until all the milk is incorporated, and you have a thin sauce. Add the cheese, sliced thin or grated. The cheese should melt and be suspended in the sauce. Add the salt and seasonings.

Mix the mac & cheese sauce together and put in a casserole dish. Top with additional cheese, breadcrumbs, and dot with a bit more butter. Bake until golden & bubbly.

This is my grandmother's recipe:

1 box elbow macaroni

2 cans of evaporated milk

1 can of water

3 to 4 ounces of Velveeta, cubed

salt & pepper to taste.

Cook the elbow macaroni until it is still very firm, drain, and place in an oven safe casserole dish. In a sauce pan, combine the evaporated milk, water and cubed velveeta. Heat over a medium low flame, stirring constantly, until the velveeta is melted and the sauce is just starting to bubble.
Add salt & pepper to taste. Pour over the macaroni, it will be soupy, but the excess will be absorbed by the cooking pasta. Sprinkle with paprika, cover, and place in a 350o oven for about 45 minutes.

Delicious hot,.. even better cold, in my opinion.

I boil a box of elbows
then mix elbows,butter,milk(just a splash or two),cheese-I use three or four kinds(american,montogomery,che... and a handful of parmigiana cheese,salt,pepper, and sour cream.
I never measure.
then I put it in a baking dish and melt some butter then mix in breadcrumbs and put on top of the mac and cheese
Bake for 30 min at 350.
Yummy!
