Preheat smoker to 225°.  Cook the macaroni in a large pot.  Meanwhile, in a cast iron skillet, melt butter. Add flour and whisk until no lumps remain. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. 

INSTRUCTIONS

Gradually add milk and heavy cream, stirring until the mixture is smooth and thickened. Stir in the dry mustard, salt, and pepper.  Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheese until smooth.  Drain macaroni and add to the skillet, stirring until evenly coated.
