Homemade Baked Cheeseburger Mac and Cheese step by step

  1. Preheat Oven to 375°.

  2. Cook Ground Beef and add in Worcestershire, Ketchup, Mustard, and Montreal Steak Seasoning while its cooking… DO NOT DRAIN!.

  3. While meat is cooking cook the Elbow Macaroni and drain once done… put back in pot so you can mix sauce and macaroni once sauce is done.

  4. While pasta is cooking start adding Velveeta Cheese to beef mixture and allow it to melt and be stirred in to create sauce.

  5. Mix finished sauce and pasta together and place in sprayed or buttered casserole dish.

  6. Sprinkle Shredded Cheese to your liking and then add Bread Crumbs to your liking as well.

  7. Place in oven for about 20 - 30 mins or until top is Golden to light brown (DO NOT COVER WITH FOIL).

  8. Suggestions: Cut it to the portion sizes you want once it comes out of oven and then let it cool off for about 2 mins… I used Cooking Spray at the end to spray the Bread Crumbs to make them crisp up better… Also to minimize time try to boil the water as the ground beef is cooking (common sense, I know but some people might not know)… serve with salad for a more balanced meal.

Stir in macaroni, broth, milk, ketchup, steak seasoning, mustard and onion powder; bring to a boil.

Cook macaroni according to package directions for al dente; drain.
