I love this recipe! This is what I always make to take to our family suppers on the holidays. It never fails to be requested and is ALWAYS a hit! Comfort food at its finest.

I read a lot of the reviews and made this exactly as the recipe says, and I must have done it right because it took exactly the amount of time specified at the top...but I didn't like it. I would add more bacon, plus I would leave OUT the blue cheese, along with the thyme and onion in the roux, assuming I'd ever make it again, which I know I won't. The other 4 cheeses in this are mild and the blue cheese overpowers them even though there is less blue cheese than the other cheeses in it. Also, this was a VERY expensive recipe to make. I'm sure there are other, less expensive and easier recipes online that will taste better than this one. If you do decide to make it - unless you really really LIKE blue cheese - I suggest you leave that out and put in more cheddar.

***MUST TRY**** It is the most AMAZING Mac-N-Cheese ever! I absolutely loved how all the different textures and tastes came together; BRILLIANTLY DONE!!!! I have never been a big fan of Mac-N-Cheese but this is all in a class of its own and Certainly a MUST KEEP recipe. I also enjoyed the subtle taste of blue cheese; just the right amount and not overpowering. Truly an amazing dish and one to make over and over again. ****MUST TRY FOLKS**** You wont be disappointed for sure.

I wish people would quit rating recipes that they have changed!!! If you aren't going to follow a recipe, ie, leave out the blue cheese, then don't rate it, it's not the written recipe!!!!! This is a great recipe as is!

I can't believe people on here are rating the recipe based on eating it at Friday's. of course it is going to be different and not be as good. It's Friday's, not a gourmet restaurant.
Now on to the recipe, I've made it once a week now and can't get enough. Everyone we make it for just loves it and I don't think it is too pricey to make. I guess it depends on where you go to buy you cheeses, but even then, when the cheese that I buy is enough to make at least 2 batches,so it's not that bad.
Don't judge until you've tried it. There is a lot of prep work involved, but it is TOTALLY worth it! The only modification I've made is to add more bacon, but that's because I love bacon :

I was worried the blue cheese would be to strong for my kids but "truth be told" I made it for me.. Everyone including my Kids loved it. They especially loved the "BACON" in it. It came out perfect. Mac-N-Cheese is by far one of my favorite comfort foods and Rick's Recipe is The Best thus far..I wouldn't expect anything less from Rick Massa, He is truly a professional. Watch this episode. He is an awesome human being.

Several times and everyone says its the best they've ever had. It is about $50 to make but totally worth it. The dish goes a long way since its so rich. My husband helps me when I make it because it's a little overwhelming. Especially if it's your first time.

Sooo good! I highly recommend this dish. It is expensive to make (about $50-60 if you don't have the ingredients on hand. I would suggest measuring everything out beforehand, especially if you're preparing solo. The dish is extemely rich, but a guaranteed crowd pleaser. I will definitely be making for my next dinner party or work get together! Enjoy! :
