Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter.
- Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic powder, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook, whisking, until sizzling all over and light golden, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the half-and-half and chicken broth, return to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream and 1 1/2 cups of the Cheddar. Add the hash browns and toss until coated in the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the hash brown mixture to the prepared baking dish, then top with the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar. Bake until browned and bubbling at the edges, about 45 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 475 degrees F and continue to bake until the top is crisp and browned all over, about 5 minutes.

This is the way my MIL makes her hash brown casserole. It is certainly similar to most but I have found that it is hands down the absolute best. She always warned me not to stray from the specified ingredients and I must confess that I did and I hate to admit, she was right. This recipe is a favorite of both mine and dh's family gatherings.

Tips:
- Use fresh potatoes: Fresh potatoes will give your casserole the best flavor and texture. If you can, use russet potatoes, as they are the most starchy and will hold their shape well in the casserole.
- Shred the potatoes finely: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will not cook evenly and will be more likely to stick together.
- Use a cast iron skillet: A cast iron skillet will help to evenly distribute the heat and give your casserole a nice crispy crust.
- Don't skimp on the cheese: The cheese is what makes this casserole so rich and delicious. Use a good quality cheddar cheese and plenty of it.
- Let the casserole rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together and the casserole to set.

Cracker Barrel's Hash Browns Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion.
