DIRECTIONS

1.

To make breadcrumbs, toast hamburger buns in a low temperature oven (200 degrees F) until slightly golden brown and firm. Cool before preparing crumbs.
Break buns into pieces and place in food processor or appropriate grinder. Process bread until desired crumb size is obtained.

2.

Cook elbow macaroni in steam-jacketed kettle until al-dente (cooked just long enough to be still firm, and not too soft), according to directions on the package (about 9 to 11 minutes). DO NOT OVERCOOK. Drain off water.

3.

Melt margarine in a stock pot or steam-jacketed kettle.

4.

Combine flour, salt, dry mustard, white pepper, and parsley in a bowl. Add to the melted margarine. Cook this for 2 minutes over medium heat, stirring continuously.  Do not brown.

5.

Heat milk in a stockpot to a simmer, then slowly add milk to the flour mixture, stirring continuously. Cook until smooth and thick.

6.

Add Worcestershire sauce, shredded American cheese, and 8 ounces of Parmesan cheese to the white sauce. Stir over low heat until cheese melts.

7.

Combine well-drained macaroni with sauce and mix well. Place 10 pounds 6 ounces into each steamtable pan (12" X 20" X 2 1/2"). Cover with a lid or aluminum foil.

8.

To bake:

Conventional oven:  350 degrees F, 30 minutes.
