My wife likes to make Paula Deen's recipe for Mac & Cheese - includes Cheddar, Swiss, PEPPER JACK, Colby, Muenster, and Gouda. I think it costs us 15 bucks to make but it sure is some good Mac & Cheese :)

Speaking of Cuban food, have you ever cooked in a Caja China? I've never seen one used but they are a plywood box lined with sheet metal. A whole pig is butterflied and dropped into the box and hot coals are put in the lid. The top of the pig is in contact with the hot lid, creating a nice crisp skin and the rest of the meat cooks from the heat trapped in the box. Mmmmmm... crispy BBQ pork!

I would really dig making one sometime MDM,Never have cooked in one myself, but there was a really tasty cuban place in Glendale,Ca many years ago that did, wish I could remember the name?

Hi Rummy, one and the same, just depends on which cook book your reading at the time, Butter & Flour.
