DEE'S SMOKED MAC N CHEESE
The subtle smoky flavor really shines through in this creamy and delicious macaroni and cheese. The low and slow cooking time makes the cheesy goodness meld with the macaroni which is cooked perfectly. Definitely worth the wait while this cooks on the smoker.

Steps:
- 1. Boil macaroni in salted water until very al dente (about 5-7 min). It will cook the rest of the way in the smoker. Drain and set aside. Spray aluminum (disposable) casserole or lasagna pan with non-stick spray.
- 2. In a large heavy pot on medium heat, melt butter or bacon grease. Sauté chopped onion and garlic till opaque. Stir in flour and cook for a minute. Stir in wine and cook until evaporated.
- 3. Whisk in both kinds of milk, mustards, and cheeses. Cook until sauce is smooth and bubbly. Stir constantly to avoid burning. Season to taste.
- 4. Mix cheese sauce with macaroni and pour into prepared pan. Top with extra cheese.
- 5. Smoke in smoker for 2-4 hours (depending on the type of smoker you use) and smoke until light golden brown. Enjoy!
- 6. **Sauce should not be too thick. So if you want it creamy when it's done, thin it with a little more milk. If you like it drier, keep the sauce thicker. The longer cooking time in the smoker as opposed to baking in the oven, makes the cheese sauce soak into the macaroni. If you just want to make it in the oven, bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until light golden brown.
