To the bacon fat, add in the butter, once melted, whisk in the flour, once combined, whisk in the milk.

½ cup flour

In two batches, add in the shredded cheeses, I used pepper Jack, white cheddar & mozzarella BUT any good melting cheese will work in this. Once melted, stir in the mustard, chiles & bacon. At this point, you can serve as is, it was delicious OR bake it.
