Our chefs just took mac ’n’ cheese to the next level of pasta nirvana by adding pulled pork into the mix. That’s right: with every bite of curly cavatappi noodles, you also get chunks of melt-in-your-mouth-tender precooked meat. And because they won’t settle or anything less than blowing your mind, our chefs added smoky barbecue spices, too. So grab a fork and get ready to dig in to this ultimate take on some of your favorite comfort foods.

Instructions

Prep
1

Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry scallions, then trim and thinly slice, separating greens and whites.

Boil Pasta
2

Once water boils, add cavatappi to pot. Cook until al dente, 8-10 minutes. Scoop out and reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water, then drain.

Cook Pork
3

Meanwhile, tear pork into smaller, bite-sized pieces. Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring a few times, until pork begins to brown, 4-5 minutes. Stir in scallion whites and cook 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate.

Make Sauce
4

After draining cavatappi, lower heat under pan used for pork to medium and add 2 TBSP butter. Once melted, stir in flour and cook 30 seconds. Slowly whisk in milk, reserved pasta cooking water, barbecue seasoning, and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then let bubble until just thickened, 1-2 minutes.

Stir Pasta
5

Remove pan from heat and add cream cheese and Mexican cheese, stirring until smooth. Stir in cavatappi and pork to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

Plate and Serve
6

Divide pasta between plates. Garnish with scallion greens and hot sauce (to taste).
