So I know this guy, he is a really really really close friend. I daresay no body loves him as much as I do. Ok..
So my friend sells bbq on weekends. from his drive way. unlicensed, uninsured, with careful attention to food safety and sanitation. So his business is getting big, so big that he will have to go legit soon. so he is getting his business in order and planning on a soft opening some time next year.
He primarily sells whole meats, butts, briskets, pulled chicken trays, and wings. His stuff is pretty good even. more and more of his customers, he says, are asking for sides. He produces good sides. solid traditional sides that don't reinvent the wheel, although they bend it slightly. anyway. my friend has been messing with a plain old kid friendly mac n cheese for several weeks now. one of the draws in his area is kid friendly menu items. Customers ask for mac and cheese, but he tells them he doesn't have it yet. most of them understand the dilemma, its good with you make it, but it doesn't hold well.
so he doesn't need advice on a good mac n cheese recipe, he has several, ive tried them all. He needs to know how to make it so it doesn't either break or turn to mush or cement after an hour or so in a cambro or steam table. (forgive the format)
