Directions

Preheat the grill or smoker to 300 °F.
Prep the sauce: In a cast iron pan on the stove on medium add: 1 stick of butter (or beef tallow) and minced garlic. Once butter has melted, add 4 Tbsp flour. Mix with a wooden spoon continuously for 2-3 minutes. Pour in milk and reduce to low. Add cream cheese and stir until melted. Reduce heat to low. Slowly add in 4 cups half shredded colby jack and cheddar cheese. Add 2 Tbsp Fat Boy All Purpose Rub, & 2 Tbsp Moo Moo Magic Brisket Rub & Seasoning by Southbound Barbecue. Once cheese is fully incorporated, and the consistency is smooth, slowly fold in 3/4 of a lager. Cut the heat and let cool while boiling the pasta al dente.
In a 12 inch cast iron or grill safe dish, add cooked pasta, and cheese mixture. Fold in remaining shredded cheese, and add additional jalapeno bits for an extra kick.
Smoke for 1 hour. Garnish with minced green onion, Jalapeno Slices, and a drizzle of Sweet Heat Grill & Wing Squeeze by Terrapin Ridge Farms. Enjoy!
