    We tried your recipe, George, but modified it to what we had on hand: used mini bowtie macaroni, Manchego cheese instead of gouda, added some horseradish to plain old French's golden mustard, and a little parmesan with the bread crumbs, all in a 2qt DO. We may even add some chunked up ham next time, to make it a main dish. It's a keeper! Thanks!
    We ended up burning the accompanying Ham & Sweet Potatoes, because we couldn't get the coals adjusted right.

    We found it on line.

    Recipe wasn't too specific, but we cut the ham in chunks also, and used a small can of pineapple chunks. Recipe went wrong when we didn't make enough coals to heap up the sides of the DO. Didn't seem that potatoes were cooking, so Jim put it on a high flame on the stove burner, then set it in the fire pit on a hot wood fire. Too much heat caused the sugar to burn, and the ham and pineapple were charred. Had we cooked it correctly, it would have been delicious. Definitely requires a sweet tooth though! I think next time, we might add some chopped pecans, for some crunch, instead of crunchy burned ham chunks!!
