Instructions

  1. Load the wood tray with one small handful of wood chips (Hickory and apple taste great together) and preheat the smoker to 225 degrees F.

Whisk in milk and bring to a boil. Cook 5 minutes until thickened. Stir in cream cheese until mixture is smooth. Add salt and pepper to the mixture.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup Cheddar, 1 cup Gouda cheese, Parmesan cheese, pasta, and cream sauce. Place macaroni into a 11 x 9-1/2-inch aluminum roasting pan coated with nonstick cooking spray. Pour in the cheese mixture and mix into the macaroni. Sprinkle top with remaining Cheddar cheese and Gouda cheese.
  4. Place in smoker and cook 1 hours at 225 degrees F, until brown, bubbly, and delicious

Note

If you are not smoking, you may substitute the Gouda with smoked Gouda. If the recipe is too sharp, consider using mild cheddar cheese. when smoking at 225, the top may not be browned to your preference. Place it in the broiler to give it that extra touch.
