[[{“value”:”Brisket and mac and cheese are already two barbecue heavy hitters on their own, but put them together on one fork and you’ve got the ultimate comfort food combo. Smoky, tender beef adds a savory touch to creamy pasta, whether the brisket comes piled directly on top or the two are ordered side by side. Several barbecue chains have embraced the pairing, serving everything from dedicated brisket mac and cheese creations to customizable platters that let you bring the two favorites together yourself. From national chains to regional well-known spots, here are some of the best places to enjoy brisket and mac and cheese in the same meal, according to diners.
