INGREDIENTS

  • 1 lb Cavatappi macaroni
  • 16 oz Velveeta Cheese
  • 8 oz Block Sharp Cheddar Cheese
  • 8 oz Block Pepper Jack Cheese
  • 1 Stick Butter
  • 16 oz Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 2 Cups Milk
  • 2 Tablespoons BBQ Rub (YS Pork Rub)
  • 1-2 Cups Cheez-Its

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Cook the macaroni according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Grate the cheddar and pepper jack cheeses and slice the stick of butter into tablespoon-sized pieces.
  3. Place the Velveeta block in the center of a foil pan. Add the cooked macaroni, butter slices, and freshly grated cheeses around it.
  4. Pour in the milk and heavy whipping cream, then season generously with your favorite BBQ rub (I recommend YS Pork Rub).
  5. Place the foil pan in your smoker and cook for 3 hours at 250 degrees. Stir the mixture thoroughly every hour to ensure even cooking and flavor distribution.
  6. Once cooked, top with crushed Cheez-Its for a crunchy finish. Serve hot and enjoy!
