"Lobster mac and cheese lends itself perfectly to an elegant dinner with friends, but my favorite occasion to make it is girls' night with my two daughters," says Ree.

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces elbow macaroni
6 tablespoons salted butter, plus more for the baking dish
2 cooked lobster tails, meat removed and chopped into large chunks (2 cups)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup half-and-half
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
3/4 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 cup grated fontina cheese
4 ounces goat cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the macaroni until still very firm, about 4 minutes (it should be too firm to eat right out of the pot). Drain and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When it just starts to brown, throw in the lobster and cook 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  • Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter to the same skillet. Sprinkle in the flour, whisking to combine. Let the roux cook for a minute or so, whisking constantly. Pour in the milk, whisking constantly, then cook the white sauce until thick and bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes. Next, add the half-and-half, 1 teaspoon salt and plenty of pepper, and stir to combine. Add the parmesan (hold back some for topping!), cheddar, fontina and goat cheese and stir them around to melt. Stir in the lobster and macaroni.
  • Pour the mac and cheese into the prepared baking dish and top with the reserved parmesan. Bake until bubbling and a slight crust forms on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

This recipe was just okay. The lobster was cooked well, but the cheese sauce was a bit bland. I think I would have preferred it with a more flavorful cheese.

This recipe was a waste of time and money. The lobster was tough and the cheese sauce was flavorless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure what went wrong with this recipe, but it turned out terrible. The lobster was mushy and the cheese sauce was clumpy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe was a disaster! The lobster was overcooked and tough, and the cheese sauce was watery and bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The lobster was cooked perfectly, but the cheese sauce was lacking in flavor. I think I would have preferred it with a more flavorful cheese, such as cheddar or Gruyère.

This recipe was a bit too rich for my taste. The lobster and cheese sauce were both very flavorful, but it was a bit too much for me. I think I would have preferred it with a lighter cheese sauce.
