Mac & Cheese:
- 4 cups Macaroni Elbows cooked
- 1.5 cups Sharp Cheddar shredded
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella Cheese shredded
- 1.5 cups Whole Milk
- ½ cup Bacon Bits
- ½ cup All Purpose Flour
- 2.5 tbsp Unsalted Butter
- 1.5 tbsp Cowboy Butter Rub
- 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
Steak:
Slather your steak in oil and generously season with my cowboy butter rub.
Preheat your grill to high heat (400F).
Add your steak to the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until 120F internal. Once done, pull them off and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Finally, slice them really thin into bite size pieces. Set to the side and keep warm.
Mac & Cheese:
Add a skillet to the grill. Add your butter and flour to the skillet to melt and mix for 1-2 minutes. Then add some cowboy butter rub and mix together.
Once thickened into a paste, slowly add your 75% of your milk in batches to fully integrate it and let the mixture thicken.
Once mixed, add your mustard. Finally, add your shredded cheese and keep stirring until fully integrated and smooth. Thin out the sauce with the milk at the end.
Add to another skillet some macaroni and ⅔ of the cheese sauce. Mix together and then top with the chopped steak pieces and bacon bits. Smother in more shredded cheese and cheese sauce.
Add to the oven at 400F for 10 minutes to get a great crust, then top with chopped parsley, serve and enjoy!
