BBQ Pork Mac and Cheese Casserole

BBQ Pork Mac and Cheese Casserole! My two favorite things combined! I love anything barbecue and I have always loved mac and cheese. Naturally, I would try to combine the two and make BBQ Pork Mac and Cheese Casserole! Give it a try!

It’s back to school for me and my family! Back to recipes that make my life easier. Here is something super easy and it didn’t take a lot of time. In fact, I used the crockpot for most of it! Luckily for me, Matt is willing to try just about anything that I make so here we go! 

BBQ Pork Mac and Cheese Casserole

Ingredients

• 2-pound pork shoulder
• favorite bbq rub
• Stubbs sticky sweet BBQ sauce
• 1 pound macaroni noodles, cooked to al dente
• 6 tablespoons salted butter
• 4 tablespoons flour
• 4 cups of milk
• 3 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded swiss cheese

Directions

1. Rub the outside of the pork with your favorite rub. I used Weber pork and chicken bbq rub. Place in the crockpot on low for 6 to 8 hours.
2. Pull out of the crockpot and shred with two forks. Toss in favorite BBQ sauce. I used Stubbs Sticky Sweet.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
4. Melt butter in a skillet and add the flout and stir over medium heat until the mixture is lightly browned. 1 to 2 minutes.
5. Add the milk and whisk out any lumps. Cook on medium-high heat until the sauce starts to thicken. About 6 minutes. Start to slowly add in cheese and whisk until smooth and melted. Turn off the heat and then add cooked pasta to the sauce and stir.
6. Spray a clear dish and pour the mac and cheese into an 8×13 inch pan. Top with pork tossed in sauce. 
7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until browned and bubbly.
