Instructions
- Shred all the cheeses and reserve a ½ cup of the smoked cheddar. Cut the Velveeta into 1 inch cubes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the macaroni until al dente per the package instructions. Drain.
- While boiling the macaroni, in a small sauce pan, combine cream, milk and butter over medium-low heat and warm until butter is melted.
- Add mustard powder, nutmeg, pepper, salt, and diced chiles and stir until combined.
- Preheat the smoker or oven to 350 degrees.
- Add all the cheeses (except ½ cup of Smoked Cheddar reserved for topping) to the cooked pasta and pour sauce over the cheese and pasta. Stir until just combined.
- Spray a 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray and pour the pasta into it. Top with ½ cup reserved smoked cheddar.
- Bake until the cheddar is melted, about 25 minutes. Consider covering with foil half way through if using a smoker, to avoid it being overly smoky.
