Thanks for the recipe. I made this the other night for dinner and the family really enjoyed it. I found it slightly thin though, and added some flour. I also used fresh garlic. Had it reheated, great. Will make again. :)

Fabulous!!! There was a place in Ohio called "The Barn" that my grandmother used to take me to. I want to say that it was over by Wooster? This has got to be the same recipe they use. Everyone in the family ate it up and my 2 yr old asked for broc. cheese for days:) Thanks so much for sharing. I'll be making this forever with fond memories.
