Everyday eats…

pulledporkmacandcheese3

So often at your favorite BBQ place they offer mac and cheese as a side dish to go with your meal. I always get a pulled pork sandwich and sometimes my side is mac and cheese. One day when the two mixed I decided why not just throw them together the next time I make mac and cheese? So I did. I didn’t plan on putting this up on the blog. It was just a weeknight meal. Yes it’s another mac and cheese recipe. But the teens eat mac and cheese so we make a lot of it in a lot of different ways. Apparently people want to see those ways according to Instagram when I posted it and the emails that I got asking if I was going to share the recipe.

Granted they are … [Read more...]
