Mac and Cheese, Please

Two men, one goal: the ultimate mac and cheese.

Looking for an Alton Brown recipe for oven roasted broccoli, my eyes saccaded upon this tasty little morsel on FoodNetwork.com:

That’s right… the #1 and #3 spots belong to Mac & Cheese: DOMINATION!

I think a Mac & Cheese celebration (as they put it) sounds like a fantastic idea. In fact, that’s why I was searching for it… let us know if you hear about any coming up.

You can bet that Lance Glass’s winning recipe will be tried. I just can’t believe that photo–the crusty edge bits are usually the best part of a homemade dish! What were they thinking?!?

Tonight I learned that Armando (a good friend of a good friend) makes a special homemade mac and cheese.

It’s one of those mac and cheeses that people call him up and invite him over to cook at their house because they can’t sleep due to their craving for it. Then they keep the leftovers for themselves and eat them all the next day in an “oh just one more bite” kind of way.  Later, they come to and find themselves in a jaundiced, drunk-on-cheddar daze melting into the couch with rivulets of orange drool leaking from the corners of their mouths.

It sounds amazing.
