Ingredients: 5 slices bacon 1/4 cup butter 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 4 cups half-and-half 3 cups shredded smoked Cheddar cheese, divided 3 cups shredded Parmesan cheese, divided 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper 1 (16-ounce) box small penne or elbow macaroni, cooked according to package directions 1 (4-ounce) jar diced pimientos, drained Garnish: sliced green onion Instructions 1.Preheat broiler. Spray 6 (1-cup)ramekins with nonstick cooking spray. 2.In a large Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove from pan, and let drain on paper towels. Reserve 1/4 cup drippings in pan; crumble bacon. 3.To drippings in pan, add butter, and melt over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour until smooth, and cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. Whisk in half-and-half, and cook, whisking frequently, until mixture is thickened and smooth. Add 2 cups each Cheddar and Parmesan and next 3 ingredients, stirring until melted and smooth. Stir in pasta, pimientos, and bacon. Spoon pasta mixture into prepared ramekins, and top with remaining 1 cup each Cheddar and Parmesan. 4.Broil for 4 minutes or until cheese is melted and lightly browned. Garnish with green onion, if desired. Notes Get out your box grater, and shred blocks of cheese for this recipe. Your dish will have a creamier texture than if you use packaged shredded cheese, and you’ll also save money since blocks of cheese are cheaper than preshredded.

LOVE these videos Mr. & Mrs. O!! Thank you for inviting us into your after work lives and allowing us to be a part of your evenings (would love to have a beer with you two!) and, eeeeeekkk, when did Trinity get so dang big?! Happens to fast.....wife and I are getting ready to throw an 18th birthday for our baby in a couple weeks (older two are 27 and 24); oy vey, must have blinked somewhere along the way.....anyway; THANK YOU for the awesome content; Cheers!!!
Eric is a smart and respectful man. He keeps his wife in first place and NEVER second to anyone, for any reason. Something a lot of young men should take note of.
When my wife and myself were trying to survive on Army pay in 1966 through 1968, we ate Kraft Boxed Macaroni and Cheese sometimes 7 evenings a week as that is all we could afford even at the base commissary. We had a newborn and milk and formula and diapers were the priority. I still like boxed macaroni and cheese, sure brings back memories. Lunch was usually peanut butter sandwiches made on bread so thin you could almost read a newspaper through it. Remember Howard Johnson's Restaurant had "All You Can Eat Clam Night" and the place was full of military families and they sure ate all they could. Would not trade the education I got while serving in the military and the police department in Dallas for any college degree.
Great video. I especially like that you installed a full kitchen in your garage for family meals which provides a break away from work. The separation of work and family during the day is like a breath of fresh air. More please.
I know you guys are just living your lives, but seeing your interactions and such is so heartwarming in this day and age. It's sad that this isn't the norm any more, but...
One of the best things about being a mechanic is talking to customers and talking about good food and them bringing home made goods! Just ate a jar full of the best pickles ever
Love smoking videos and all cooking. Real cooking with real families like we do. So many cooking videos are not realistic after work or families with children. Thanks you for all you do and sharing your family with all of us. May God bless you and Mrs O.
I remember one of the great benefits of having a dog in the house when my kids were little was our kitchen floor was never crunchy. LOL I'm enjoying the new videos, thanks for all you do! Jim.
Please don’t stop making videos, whether it’s mechanic, cooking, random life, your channel is the one I look forward to at lunch everyday! Keep it up sir
Eric, you and Mrs.O keep it up, these are great!! My Wife and I drive a Big Truck all week and when we get home from the road all we want is a home cooked meal!! I would love to try this some weekend, I'm getting good with cobblers and pies and My favorite Beans, cornbread and fried taters!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You guys crack me up. You two remind me so much of my son and his wife (about the same ages). Love your stuff and hate hearing you underrate yourself. Keep up this new stuff. Love the car stuff, but the way you two interact is priceless and damn do you two make me fricken hungry!!!!!
Love these type of videos. Best Mac & Cheese is baked in the oven with a crust on top and the sides of the casserole dish but still creamy. AKA heart attack on a plate.
Your dish of Bacon-Macaroni and Cheese looks delicious, but you cannot make this a favorite meal unless you are a person who does not gain weight then you can enjoy it! God Bless you all as you have fun together with your family and friends each day! Such a good-looking family!
I’m glad you’ve brought new life to this channel. This was your outdoor channel right? The cooking is good, you could also do some gardening videos, or just some family vlog stuff. I think anyone who is subscribed to this channel would like anything you choose to upload here.
Hey you can call this new channel cooking with your favorite mechanic or technician. Looks great you had my heart racing just watching put it together.
Wow, that's some casserole for sure. does look tasty. as for the after-hour videos I do appreciate them and it is nice to see the family in a different element sometimes.
Man, I need a beer, a bowl of that and then to be in a macaroni coma. Also, be careful smacking glass pimento jars against pan edges...as glass can chip off into the beautiful sea of cheese. Enjoyed cooking with the fam! More pit barrel episodes please!
Walmart thick and creamy mac and cheese is the quick easy go to fer mac and cheese......this videos are great......who doesn't like eating.....😂🤣😂🤣😂.....keep them coming
Eric, I've been watching your SMA channel for years, id say equal parts as research and help and equal parts entertainment and a sense of hanging out at your shop! This is the first time the tube recommended this channel. I been barking in my wife's ear for years about how great your channel is and the great way you and the Mrs get along. I seen food and a video by you kids and I sure hope my wife cooks this. Eric, I laughed so hard because as far as food, I'm a giggly kid when my wife works magic in her shop! Personally the tin container style you see at parties is honestly my favorite for the crust parts that sound similar to Mrs. O's mothers. My wife dug up an old recipe of her mothers recently and that is delicious as well, and I ain't just saying that because she may read this.
Down south here we have Bojangles. Their specialty is chicken, biscuits, breakfast etc. They have a cajun chicken biscuit that I have pimento cheese put on. It is amazing.
That looks Awesome and thank you for sharing Heart Attack or not I will be trying this . I want to say some of what and how you shared this reminded me of the time I spent in Bradenton Florida working at the Tropicana Plant with a lot of great people plus a few wonderful trips to North Carolina with a really good friend . Thanks Mrs O for the bare foot reminder of how the women in NC walked just about everywhere 😊
Thanks for the invite into your kitchen. The finished product looked fabulous. We are a dairy farm family in WI so we and our cows thank you for using (and hopefully enjoying) all of the cheese. Keep up the good work. God bless all of you.
Love these after hours videos much as the car repair videos. Cooking is one hobby my wife and I share and she loves the videos. So We’ll definitely keep watching them as long as you make them!!
Really enjoy watching you and Mrs. O goofing together. Makes me miss my late wife a little less. God bless you and your awesome family PS- pimentos are just red bell peppers lol
Macaroni cheese with chilli flakes mixed through covered in fresh sliced tomatoes with a nice brown crispy cheesy topping and a side of chips (fries). Thank you so much for these off the cuff videos, they really are an insight to your family life. That's a lot of cheese, I'd probably double up on the macaroni and cook till soft, that al dante sh*t just swells in the stomach until the lining bursts🤣
This dish reminded me of Cowboy Kent Rollins Hop along Hominy. This is the first time I have seen this channel! Wow, not only do you do awesome work in the shop, but you cook with the wife as well!
Whoo!! Hoo!! Found you have another channel.. ❤❤❤ We came across this video today. Sounds so yummy.. Have to fix it for my man.. 😊 We love you guys, the way you interact is awesome. May God bless you for how you treat your precious lady.. Keep up the great work and we'll see ya in the next one.. ❤❤🙏🙏
I’m with Mrs. O on this one, Eric. Baked Mac N’ Cheese for the win. You should be able to cut out a portion and pick it up with a spoon/spatula. It’s especially good with some sharp hoop cheddar.

Love the after hour videos! They are educational and worth every minute of watching!
Great video. I especially like that you installed a full kitchen in your garage for family meals which provides a break away from work. The separation of work and family during the day is like a breath of fresh air. More please.
"We're not professional cooks, we're professional eaters. We like to eat" and I'm the absolute same 😂😂😂
Catchy “If we can cook it you can cook it”. Love your videos
Good video, I enjoyed 👍👍👍.
I know you guys are just living your lives, but seeing your interactions and such is so heartwarming in this day and age. It's sad that this isn't the norm any more, but...
The South Main Cooking Channel👍
One of the best things about being a mechanic is talking to customers and talking about good food and them bringing home made goods! Just ate a jar full of the best pickles ever
Glad to finally see the famous mac and cheese i've heard so much about! Nice to see you back doing this channel, guys!
You gotta do this Helga. It will give you the pasta shakes for sure haha
I recently saw a cooking show with the Mac n cheese..supposedly it's big in Texas and served on a sandwich
Anything you all put out here we will watch and have a great laugh. Thanks for the good times.
I love this format! Very cool to see Mrs. O in her element asking you for help for a change! You guys work super well together.
Love smoking videos and all cooking. Real cooking with real families like we do. So many cooking videos are not realistic after work or families with children. Thanks you for all you do and sharing your family with all of us. May God bless you and Mrs O.
My wife said to me that this is the only YT channel she likes. Keep up the good work Mr and Mrs O
I remember one of the great benefits of having a dog in the house when my kids were little was our kitchen floor was never crunchy. LOL
I'm enjoying the new videos, thanks for all you do! Jim.
The cooking vids are awesome. There are enough "professionals" online. I prefer seeing you guys as real people in the kitchen/at the grill.
Love Mrs O, El Dontay. Pasta in the water before boiling and rinsing the pasta. Eric, you're a lucky man. ☺️
Please don’t stop making videos, whether it’s mechanic, cooking, random life, your channel is the one I look forward to at lunch everyday! Keep it up sir
I love these two, and it's hilarious how he's so animated and she just kind of acts bored and entertains him...
I always like to do a sprinkle of breadcrumbs across the top to give I a yummy crunchy crust.
“I come home, I eat, I sleep.” Could not relate more, from a fellow tech. Loving the after hours!
i like the whole - 'Eric O. After Hours' series!! All the recipes i've watched look great!!
Faithful watcher of SMA. Just started watching after hours, loving it. 😊

Enjoy these kinds of videos. Learn something in every one. My kind of cooking and living.

Eric, you inspired me and I did ribs on the Weber grill yesterday, finishing them in the slow cooker for tenderness.
Love these videos! Keep'em comin
This dish reminded me of Cowboy Kent Rollins Hop along Hominy. This is the first time I have seen this channel! Wow, not only do you do awesome work in the shop, but you cook with the wife as well!
Love these Videos Mr. O @After Hours With Eric O.
