MACARONI & CHEESE - CRACKER BARREL COPYCAT
Here is the one I use. It is as close to their *original* mac & cheese as I have found. The mac & cheese they currently serve has changed some since their original recipe.

Steps:
- In a sauce pan melt butter over medium low heat then add the flour a little bit at a time while whisking to make a roux. Heat the broth. Next add the broth to the roux, stir with the whisk. This will thicken as it heats. Next add a little cream watch for consistency.Bring 4 cups water to a boil in a separate pot, add salt, and pasta.
- In the other pot add shredded cheese a 1/4 of a cup at a time while stirring with a spoon. When you have about one cup of cheese in you can add the rest of the cheese.
- Cook the pasta al dente. Strain and combine with the cheese sauce.Pour the mix into a casserole and bake uncovered in a preheated oven set to 350°F for about 10 minutes. **Optional, you can mix melted butter and bread crumbs and sprinkle lightly on top.
- Keep an eye on the mac & cheese, you want it to brown around the edges and in patches on top.
- Let stand for 10 min before serving.
