Here in Gibson County we are in luck, because Rz's Cafe' in Ft. Branch serves their version of the Hot Brown and have agreed to show us the steps. Candy Yancey and crew have a flare with food and they do this dish with style.
A Hot Brown will be great with those turkey leftovers in a few weeks. It sounds fancy, but it's not all that hard and will be a new twist on Thanksgiving leftovers.

Making the roux. |
Ingredients - Sauce
3 T. butter
3 T. flour
1/2 cup heavy cream or milk
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. white pepper
1 T. onion, chopped fine
1/2 cups ea. Cheddar and Parmesan cheeses, shredded
Melt butter on medium heat, cook onion until soft. Add flour - making light roux.
Stir until blended. Add salt and pepper. Gradually stir in broth and cream or milk. We add the cheese at this point making it a cheese sauce, not just a basic Mornay. Let the cheese melt and incorporate.
