15lbs of cheese in the smoker
« on: May 28, 2012, 08:52:48 AM »
The first batch of cheese I smoked turned out really good :drool:
Since I'm already getting low on smoked cheese I figured it was time I should get another batch going.
5lbs each of Med Cheddar, Colby and Pepper Jack. I'm using a 50/50 mix of apple and hickory pellets.

Forgot to get a pic before packaging.
And the last time I smoked cheese i used the top two racks only and today I used all three of my
racks, which turns out the bottom rack is a little to close to the AMNPS, I had two bieces of cheese
that were directly above the smoldering pellets and it melted the cheese a bit to much  :DOH:

Jason, you don't mess around when you do a batch of cheese. :yike:


Looks great, thanks for the reminder, I need to make up a batch.

  After you package it do you freeze it?

I've never tried to freeze any, never lasts long enough.

I just vacuum pack it.

Jason My Culinary Brother,

Thanks for the info and inspiration. I have been itching to get the smoker working and since I have not been salmon fishing yet I revisited this thread. My first attempt at smoking cheese and I am very pleased with the results. Since we were in the mood we went ahead and did some home canned salsa and what the hell even smoked a couple of chicken hind quarters for dinner.

Thanks again and we look forward to trying our smoked cheese.
