Ingredients
- 12 oz dried pasta
- 8 oz pulled pork (already cooked)
- 3 Tbsp butter, separated
- 2 heaping Tbsp flour
- 1½ cups milk
- 1½ cups cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 cup gruyere, or other mild cheese

Instructions
- In a large pot, boil water and add pasta. Cook until just underdone, then strain and add back to pot. Toss with pulled pork and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the remaining 2 Tbsp of butter. Add the flour and whisk, cooking until light golden brown.
- Slowly add the milk to the pan, whisking continuously to prevent scorching. Bring to a simmer and let thicken, approx. 5-7 minutes.
- Reserve ½ cup of cheddar cheese. Add in 1 cup each of cheddar and gruyere cheese and stir gently until cheese melts. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add in the pasta pulled pork mixture and mix to coat evenly with the cheese sauce. Sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese over the top.
