Description

Ingredients

• 2 Cups of the pork (we use our leftovers)
• ½ 16oz box (so 8 oz) of Campanelle Pasta, cooked and drained
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons flour
• ½ teaspoon dijon mustard
• ¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 4 dashes of hot sauce (or to taste)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1¼ cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
• ½ cup parmesan cheese, shredded
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons butter
• ½ cup bread crumbs

Directions

• In a large sauce pan over medium heat, add the butter and melt until beginning to foam. Add the flour and quickly whisk for 30 seconds. Add the dijon, worcestershire, and hot sauce,(see note) whisk again and add the milk and cream, whisking as youre pouring. Allow the mixture to come to a boil and begin to thicken. Turn down to a simmer and add the cheeses. Allow to melt and thicken a little more and then season to taste with salt and pepper, which is essential for a good macaroni and cheese. Add the pasta and sweet pork, stir to combine and set aside.
• Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat a small pan over medium heat, add the butter, melt completely and add the bread crumbs, stirring occasionally until golden. Remove from heat.
• Spray an 8x9 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Add the pasta and pork, and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Bake for 15 minutes or until heated through and bubbling, allow to rest 5-10 minutes and then serve.
