Well I'm late to the party here, but since I'm trying to fix my VS2015 SP3 problem here, and waiting for the VS2015 with SP3 to load, I'll throw in my 2 cents.

I found it best to create a
Dictionary<string, string> Categories { get; set; }
So if you have a model
public class model_items
{
  int ID { get; set; }
  string SKU { get; set; }
  int CategoryID { get; set; }

  Dictionary<string, string> select_Categories { get; set; }
}
This like FSSiteCore said, you use his example in the View
@Html.DropDownFor(m => m.CategoryID, new SelectList(@Model.selectCategory), "-- Select Category --")

To populate the model in the controller
model_items model = new model_items();
model = load_items(1);
model.selectCategories = load_Categories();

Then you write a function that loads a Dictionary of string string. You can write a function using EF to load the Category Key and value, and then package those as a Dictionary.

I have found this to be the best way to do it for me so far, being on my 3rd MVC project now.
Reason being is well the SelectList in Razor likes Dictionaries and takes them well with no problems.
