I am traveling from Michigan to Carolina for thanksgiving. I want to make this like I have the last couple years, but I’m not sure I’ll have that much time/space on the day. Can this be premade to a certain point, and finished or reheated on the day? Or can I make it on the stove and put it in a crockpot/warmer instead of using the oven?

Really weird you mentioned the skin color of you and your kids. Extra weird the inference that it took a recipe by a black chef to satisfy your daughter. It happens to be a standard Mac n cheese recipe using a Mornay Sauce like people have been using for hundreds of years. There is nothing whatsoever novel about it except he likes to add a certain seasoning.

AB, I bought your Cookbook for my 11 year old nephew (future chef) for Christmas. I hope my GF gets me a copy for Christmas. I absolutely love every one of your recipes I have tried. I have probably made at least two dozen and they have been spot on every single time. You are wonderful and thank you for this channel. I can't tell you how many people I have shared this channel with and they all love it. You're the best !!!!!!! Can't wait to try this Mac and Cheese at Thanksgiving next week.

I add a pinch of nutmeg and ground mustard really wakes up the flavors but I know you already know that.... this looks so delicious thank you AB

Ok..so today I tried this recipe, peach cobbler, and your collard greens recipe. My mom passed 4 years ago and I was never able to replicate her recipes. She was a great cook and always cooked big Sunday and holiday dinners. Last year, I finally decided that I had to pick up where she left off. So with your help, I pulled off a Thanksgiving feast fit for a king. This year, I can say the same. The mac and cheese is coming out of the oven in a bit and we'll be sitting down to eat (I still haven't mastered the art of all things being hot and ready at the same time😊). Thank you for making cooking easy. You are a living example of someone who used a gift God gave you to make lives better. Keep on serving up your declicious recipes. .

This recipe was so simple yet absolutely incredible. My fave Mac and cheese to date!!

I've always said the simplest recipes are the tastiest! This Mac and cheese is flawlessly delicious! Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic Mac and Cheese. Made some - the best ever. Then I made a second batch, added a package and a half of Cream Cheese - placed it on the Treager Pellet Smoker for an hour stirring it a couple of times - best SMOKED Mac and Cheese I have ever made. Thanks for the recipe AB!
