You ain't tasted mac & cheese until you've had a macaroni casserole! There's really no certain recipe for it. Just boil the noodles & put a layer of them in a pan, then a layer of cheese, layer of noodles..... lots of cheese! Whatever you prefer, mild, sharp, extra sharp. In a bowl mix a couple eggs & some milk & pour that over the noodles & cheese, enough to cover it. Crumble up saltine crackers & sprinkle on top & drizzle melted butter over it. Bake at about 375 for about 45 minutes.

Sure, but not just in the South. Baked Macaroni and Cheese (not out of a box) is the best! Don't forget to put the buttered bread crumbs on top.

Don't know about in the south, but I live in New England, and it's common up here. Cook macaroni, mix in cheese and milk, put in casserole, cover with buttered crumbs, and bake. Many cookbooks, and probably on-line sites, would have recipes.

That is how macaroni and cheese is made when making it from a recipe. Not just in the south.

I've certainly seen this. I mean, they put it together in the pot just like they do everywhere else, but they then put it in a casserole dish with some buttered bread crumbs or cracker crumbs (and shredded cheddar sprinkled on top, of course!) Baking it like that gives it a crispy crust on top that serves as a nice textural contrast.
I've also seen mashed potato casserole. Same thing. Also really neat.

Uhm...they do it all over the country. If you sprinkle bread crumbs on the mac/cheese in the baking pan, they will brown nicely in the oven.
