Pre-Baking Mac and Cheese — ReHeat Method?

Greetings friends!

we’ve got about 25 family coming tomorrow, and I always do the pulled pork and baby backs for the party with smoked M&C..

this year, I’m hoping to conserve a little room in the smoker and PRECOOK the M&C.….

online research is a little help: it basically says undercook the noodles. Reheat around 175° a half hour before serving. Sound about right?

happy Easter everyone!

    You’ve got this!  If you are reheating from a glass or ceramic vessel, I would allow approximately 30 minutes of counter time prior to reheating to avoid thermal shock. Last thing you need is a cracked or exploding pan. I speak from experience!  My other go-to method is to prepare and bake accordingly. Cool and freeze.  I often chill until solid and then slice into serving sized squares before wrapping and freezing. Mac & Cheese is the perfect batch cook/meal prep. You can either reheat from frozen or thawed state.
