BEER BACON MAC AND CHEESE
From Slow Roasted Italian Site: A grown up Mac n Cheese that is super cheesy and starts with thick cut bacon cooked in a skillet and a magical cheese sauce is created out of the bacon drippings. Your favorite beer is cooked right into the mixture and a mixture of smoky spices are added in. The cooked beer imparts a very distinctive taste that you can not get with any other ingredient.
