Ingredients

Techniques
- 4 oz cheddar
- thick cut bacon
Grate four ounces of very old, oily cheddar.
- 1 lb macaroni
- fresh garlic
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- hot sauce
Build the sauce by the same technique, using thick cut bacon instead of guanciale and macaroni instead of long pasta, and adding fresh garlic, a teaspoon of Dijon mustard and a few dashes of hot sauce to the blender.
- 6 oz grated cheese
- pickled jalapenos
Let things cool a little, add another six ounces of grated cheese and some pickled jalapenos, fold together so the unmelted cheese is evenly distributed, and return it to the pan.
- 2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- ½ stick melted butter
- 2 oz grated Parmesan
- 2 oz grated cheddar
- 2 oz grated white cheddar cheese
Mix two cups of panko breadcrumbs with about half a stick of melted butter and about two ounces each of grated Parmesan, cheddar and white cheddar.
Top the cast iron pan of mac and cheese with the cheesy breadcrumb mixture and press it down flat.
