Image From foodnetwork.com
2 cups pulled pork
3 cups elbow macaroni, cooked
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 cups milk
3 tbsp butter
3 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: 1/2 cup breadcrumbs for topping
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly pour in milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Stir in garlic powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt. Simmer until thickened.
Reduce heat and stir in cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Once melted, mix in cooked macaroni and pulled pork.
For a crispy topping, transfer to a baking dish, sprinkle with breadcrumbs, and broil for 2-3 minutes.
