Delish! I used a combination of various cheeses I had in my refrigerator. But I purchased the smoked cheddar, as indicated it’s important. I followed your recipe pretty much but added ham to the cheese mixture. Thank you so much for your Southern cooking tips. I’ve used several of your recipes but this is the first time I posted. ❤️

Love this Southern Baked Macaroni And Cheese Recipe, seems delicious , will love to make this one. Actually my son love macaroni , he will be very happy to have this one.

Im late but yes I put it together the evening before and then bake the day of and it comes out great!

If you mix your bread crumbs with some melted butter it will brown naturally and you can skip the broiler step. Two parts breadcrumbs to one part butter.

I use buttermilk instead of milk and it is FIRE!

I love this recipe, It’s the first mac I’ve made by myself! I’m not crazy about velveeta though, would it ruin the mac if I didn’t use it? Thank you!

First time using recipe online-just made this for tomorrow’s festivities I like it. I will be back to share the family’s feedback. I used smoked Gouda as I see others have; not sure how you can go wrong with Gouda.
Tackling the collards recipe next, so glad I came across this site.

Hey! I adore this recipe and I was thinking of trying to sub the milk for buttermilk. Do you think that’s a good idea?

I’ve made it 3 times as a side dish for my fried chicken and haven’t used the smoked cheddar yet. It was still super good every time. Tonight I got the smoked cheddar to add to it. Going see if my family notices lol.

Yayy!! So glad you guys like it!
