After smoking for however long you want, let rest on racks on the counter for an hour or so. Vacuum seal and throw I'm fridge, not freezer. Don't touch it for 4 weeks minimum.
Anything sooner you might as well eat an ash tray.

I have learned to put a Turkey sized pan from the "Dollar Store" underneath to save the drips. Doug

If you haven't already done your smoke. Personally I wouldn't smoke the whole loaf but cut into convenient chunks. When i use the large loafs I usually cut in to 6 or 8 pieces depending on the size of loaf approx 1.5 inches thick. When I get the wedge of Gouda at Costco, I trim the wax and cut 3 equal size wedges from that. I think you get better smoke when they are smaller like that.
Then as the others said seal, refrigerate and ignore for 3-4 weeks.
My barber used to smoke cheese on the Traeger in a bowl, as it would melt and take on the shape of the bowl :chuckle:

That's what I use also. Keeps my big smoker at 75-80 degrees. Works perfect.

watch the vid, it works pretty slick and plugs into all MES, gotta brush out the tube inside occasionally so the chips will continue to fall down to the heating element inside, some folks complain it goes out but it's easy to clean out.
The little drawer on the bottom is the ash clean out pan, the chips go in under the little zinc dome on top into a tube, the chips fall down the tube and there's a little electric U shaped heating element that smokes the wood. It'll run 8 hours, but I've only ran mine up to 6 hours straight and there was some wood left.

I can see how that one works, still can't figure out how the mesh one works as a cold smoker....
You get a butane or map gas torch and burn one end, then it smolders its way around the maze like a punk kids use to light firecrackers.
I think you got to use pellets though, chips might flare up
Post by: quadrafire on December 13, 2017, 09:22:28 AM
I can see how that one works, still can't figure out how the mesh one works as a cold smoker....Once lit you place it in the lower portion of smoker box without the heat turned on. Could even Jerry rig a cardboard box as a smoker in a pinch.
It just smolders pellets, very minimal heat produced

So you just put it over a flame until it starts to smoke?
Post by: KFhunter on December 13, 2017, 09:35:18 AM
You just torch one end of it until its smoldering and toss it down in the bottom of your bbq or whatever. You don't turn on the bbq itself.
