Still motivated to try all my favorite recipes on the grill, today I present to you my Mac'n Cheese on the BBQ.
To give you some context, I recently bought my first P500 so I cook everything I can on it: my terrace allows me to do so so I take advantage of it! My boyfriend challenged me to try my recipe for macaroni and cheese au gratin on the BBQ one weeknight. I love challenges!
It was a success and I made several people jealous, now it's your turn to make your guests' mouths water!
Here is the secret recipe:
Servings: 8
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- A 375g box of macaroni
- 2 tbsp margarine
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 tsp dry mustard
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 Can of condensed milk
- 1 Cup of chicken broth
- 3 cups of grated strong Cheddar
- 2 cups of brick
- 3/4 Cup Velveeta
- 2 tsp Sweet Kansas dry rub
- Optional : Quebec BBQ Ketchot Sauce to taste for people who would like to make their Mac'n Cheese spicy
Preparation:
1- Preheat your BBQ to 350°F
2- If your BBQ has a burner, you can place your pan containing water on it, otherwise place it directly on the grills of your BBQ. Boil the entire box of macaroni and set aside.*
3- In another saucepan, melt your margarine with the flour, stirring constantly.
4- Add dry mustard, onion powder, garlic powder and Sweet Kansas dry rub. Mix well.
5- Add the can of condensed milk and the chicken broth. Stir and bring to a boil.
6- Remove from heat and add 1 cup of strong cheese, velveeta cheese and Brick cheese.
7- Butter a BBQ-safe dish, add the macaroni and cheese sauce (make sure to spread the sauce over all the macaroni)
8- Add the 2 cups of strong cheese on top before putting the dish on the grill until the cheese forms a small golden crust.
*Tip: avoid overcooking your macaroni: they will go back on the BBQ afterwards.
This recipe will be a sure hit with your guests!
