If you are planning to make enough mac and cheese for 20 - 30 people I
think you are going to need more than a single 6 qt. crockpot.
Homemade mac and cheese tends to be very popular at pot luck type
functions. I have always felt it is better to have too much than not
enough. I don't have a recipe but I always make mac and cheese with a
combo of 4 - 5 cheeses. Good luck and have fun.
