A delightful twist on the classic American dish, meatloaf and mac and cheese. 86 Winter’s half and half delivered famished diners with a slice of meatloaf and a generous bowl of baked macaroni and cheese. The meatloaf, full of flavor, was a unique combination of veal and beef covered with a slightly sweet port wine sauce. The side of green beans were blanched and served with fresh garlic and crushed, crunchy, pistachios—a delightful and unexpected surprise. The mac and cheese used penne pasta and was topped a delicious crispy crust of crackers and butter. The macaroni itself was cooked al dente and not overly cheesy. This meal is a unique rendition of two of America’s most beloved comfort foods melded together to be a truly satisfying meal.

Whether starting with the fried dill pickles or the barbecued mac and cheese (mac and cheese served over brisket and pork) or just diving into the meal, your taste buds will be working overtime. The Pulled Pork (pictured here) is a staple to BBQ, but unlike most pulled pork that comes stringy and swimming in some liquid concoction, the dish at Smokestack is served in large, moist chunks with a flavorful rub.
