Smoked some cheese today!
-
I had the day off and while I was running errands I decided it was the perfect day to smoke some cheese. I have never done it but today just felt right. I didn’t have to worry about the temperature as we didn’t get above 4 degrees today! So it was definitely cold smoke…lol!
On the Weber kettle with a pellet tube.
After a 2 hour smoke.
Wrapped in butcher paper for a 24 hour rest period.
After the rest period I will vacuum pack then the really hard part. Waiting 2 weeks to let it mellow out the smoke before eating!!! -

What flavor pellets did you use? -

I used parchment paper and that worked alright but think butcher paper would be better. I’m only a week into the “mellowing” period and it seems like a month since I smoked the cheese. Let us know how it turns out after the wait.
