Vegas Style Mac N Cheese With Grilled Lobster
I saw adam make this on the next food network star season 4 and wanted to try it so badly! I found the recipe on the food network website. I'm not sure how to separate each section of ingredients. The top section (from the butter to chopped parsley) is for the mac and cheese itself. The 1 cup parsley leaves through lobsters is for the grilled lobster and the bread crumbs through the italian romano cheese is for the bread crumb topping. I haven't tried this yet myself and have listed the steps in the same order as adam gertler, but i will gladly work on the procedure if i, or a reviewer, finds a better order to list the directions for the grilled lobster and bread crumb topping. I am also listing the prep and cook times from the food network and will revise if needed. There is 1 hour of inactive prep time.
