Our favorite combinations are a Havarti (2 c.) – Cheddar (4 c.) blend with bacon, or smoked Gouda/Cheddar with ham. Add some bacon or crab if it floats your boat! Pulled pork? Oh good heavens! The possibilities are endless.

We love to add chunks of ham and make it a full meal. How about Loaded Roast Beef and Bleu Sliders? You should probably check them out! Heck, this would make a PBJ look great.

We have tried so many versions from Aretha Franklin’s, Ina Garten’s and some of the “top” recipes out on the web, but we always come back to Paula. To say my family loves Mac & Cheese it is nothing short of an understatement, and it is always the most requested side dish in our family. I grew up on Macaroni & Cheese and will never forget the taste and smell of my Grandmother Dycie’s. Our family has been baking different versions of Mac and Cheese for decades, but my dad went on the quest to find the perfect one for our family and we have all fallen head over heels in love with Paula Deen’s Crockpot Macaroni & Cheese recipe.
