I use sharp cheddar, colby jack, and Velveeta.

Thanks too you both. I thought something looked "off" to me. No disrespect to the recipe or the cooks.

The "Andy Reid" version doesn't include eggs, but has six cheeses.

I never use eggs. The recipe finkface posted is closest to what I make. Make a roux. I have never heard of eggs in mac & cheese. And I love a lot of panko or crunchy bread crumbs on top.
I just read the Andy Reid one...that wins because it has bacon!!

Bacon always makes things better.

I remember every cook in my family using eggs, evaporated milk, and Velveeta plus two other cheeses, oh, and a few drops of hot sauce. 😀

it’s good! I didn’t eat too much and it’s filling.

Agreed on the eggs. I don’t get it. Yet that’s the recipe!

Need a scoop cut though, but win $$$ on your poker night.
Exchange Evaporated Milk for whole milk, and it's much closer to anything "Southern" in my life.

Then we'd fight after the brisket or pulled pork. 😉
I can make a good blonde roux, but it's not for my Mac and Cheese.

LOL, we'd really fight. I usually make my mac and cheese in the crock pot.
