Prepare a smoker tube with smoking pellets according to the manufacturer's instructions and set on the grill to begin smoking (see Cook's Note).
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour to make a smooth paste. Cook, stirring, until the mixture smells nutty but hasn't browned, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the smoked paprika, then whisk in the milk and cream. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened and smooth, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the adobo and salt. Off heat, whisk in half of the shredded Cheddar and Gouda and all of the processed cheese cubes to make a smooth sauce.

Cover tightly with foil and place on the indirect part of the grill. Close the grill. Cook until the pasta is al dente, about 30 minutes. Remove the foil, close the grill and cook 10 minutes more. If cooking on a gas grill, turn off the grill, close the lid and let rest in the grill with the smoker tube for 10 minutes more before serving.

Steps:

• Use a 9x13 baking dish, add uncooked macaroni and pour the melted butter or oil and stir to coat the noodles well. Mix in your shredded cheese or cheese combinations and salt and pepper to taste. Cover with the milk, I like to reserve a little cheese for the top. Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for about one hour, DO NOT STIR! The top should be lightly browning and the whole mess should be bubbling on the edges. This dish can have other ingredients added but you must adjust the amount of milk, always make sure that the milk covers the noodles--shake the dish gently to settle the ingredients. I have done taco mac & cheese, bacon mac & cheese, ham mac & cheese, 7 cheese mac & cheese, this is a no fuss great meal that the leftovers reheat well in the microwave, and freezes well. Use your imagination this is a great single guy dinner or kid friendly recipe.
