- Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F (107 degrees C) and load your wood tray with a wood of your choice. The best mild woods are cherry, sugar maple, pecan and apple. I personally like hickory on occasion when smoking anything using a strong cheese like sharp cheddar.
- Cook your pasta in a large stock pot, with salted water. Follow the package instructions for cooking time, minus about two minutes for an al dente (firm to the bite) texture. Drain and rinse pasta in cool water, and set aside.
- Return your stock pot to the stove top, add the heavy cream and butter, then warm them over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the softened cream cheese and whisk until the cream cheese has broken down and the sauce is smooth. Add the grated cheeses (cheddar and smoked gouda) and stir until melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Return the cooked pasta to your stock pot and cheese sauce, and stir gently to thoroughly coat the pasta. Fold in sliced jalapeno and crumbled bacon (reserve some for the topping, if desired) then transfer to a 9 x 11 inch disposable aluminum pan that has been oiled or sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
