Apple Smoked Mac and Cheese

I like mac and cheese but I am not one to rave about it. After I made this recipe I think I will be making mac and cheese more often. I watch the Food Network more than the average person, so I often pick up ideas from some of the shows. Road Grill is a pretty good show but I find Matt Dunigan annoying at times when he is describing ingredients......."oooooooohhhh look at this chili powder" he is just way to over the top at the dumbest ingredients. However after trying his smoked mac and cheese I now like him both for his football and food knowledge. It is basically cooked macaroni, layered with tomato, bacon, onion and cheddar cheese, smoked with apple wood for about 1 hr. Could be done on weekdays for a meal or on the weekend for a side.
