    Terrible, lots of oily butter liquid of top that had to be drained off. The texture was curdled and the taste wasn't good.

    Great for a Potluck !
    This is a wonderful way to get you dish to a potluck, and still serve warm. Depending on the event, you might even be able to cook it there (if you arrive 3 hours early,LOL. Actually that's what I did because the potluck was at work. Plugged it in at 9, and at noon, I had the best, freshest, and most hot dish there! I only use half of butter, there is something about cooking it this way, that you don't need any more than that.
    About the curdling.... I'm suggest that when you have all ingredients mixed well in crockpot, DO NOT STIR during the cooking process. I think it interferes with the 'set up' process of the eggs and evap milk. I'm not sure, but I bet that is why some people had the curdling issue.
    Trish, I'm loving your show !!

    I'm really disappointed in this recipe. I used good quality cheeses, and followed the recipe exactly. I watched the show where she made this, too. And as others have stated it was completely curdled. It tasted good but it was ugly. The texture was awful and not at all creamy. I am happy I tried it, but will not make it again. I will go with a real mac and cheese recipe and make the white sauce/cheese sauce first. If anyone knows why this curdling happened please share!

    I tried this recipe because we like creamy mac and cheese not baked. It was good but the cheese got gritty. Did I use the wrong cheese? I used shredded sharp cheddar.

    I cooked this in my Crock-Pot for a large group of people and it went over well, though I thought it was a bit bland. This is the easiest mac and cheese that I have ever made. Follow the cooking directions exactly. My Crock-Pot automatically goes to warm, which I thought was great but it created a slightly burnt crust. In the future I will remove immediately and put the crock in a lo temp oven for more indirect heat if I need to keep it warm. The final results were creamy nac and cheese. I did NOT experience curdling, greasy or dry mac and cheese. The texture was just right. I am making my next batch tonight for a church potluck. I will add pepperjack cheese and try the smoked paprika with a touch of mince garlic.

    I made this other day after watching the episode (love the show. I baked it instead of using the slow cooker. It was extremely easy which I liked but the flavor was a tad on the bland side. I didn't think it would be because I used extra sharp cheddar. It definitely was not your normal creamy baked mac&cheese. Also there was so much grease I actually took napkins and soaked up a lot of it from the pan. I didn't want all the grease clogging my husbands arteries. I did give it 3 stars because it was easy and the taste was not bad. I think if I make it next time I'll add some hot sauce, more pepper and salt, and maybe some smoked paprika.

    I recently tried this recipe, and I've adopted it for my all-time favorite macaroni & cheese selection. Quite simply, it could not be any better. I gladly give it the highest rating available.

    I love it, easy, love to make it when I have no time. I bought Trisha's first cookbook, easy receipes, I am from Germany and love down to earth cooking. She is my all time favorite cook, what ever I make or bake from her, turns out well. I love her on TV, she is a lady, and a great cook
