Thoughts on type of cheese for fresh brats
-
I agree on the high temp cheese. I don’t think you’d want melted cheese in the brat running everywhere.
-
I’d stay standard and use hi temp cheese, when I do make fresh sausage it’s what I use for it.
-
If only for the way it looks in the product. High temp.
-
I ordered some high temp cheddar and high temp hot pepper cheese this morning. Thanks for everyone’s opinion.

Just a side note. The hot pepper cheese is not even close to the description. Good flavor but no heat.
Wish they would come up with a “true” pepper jack for this. It’d be awesome. -

I tried the ghost pepper… That’s spot on but, don’t like to sweat. Serious heat there. -
Planning to make some fresh brats with cheese in the near future.
What are your thoughts on using high temp cheese vs. regular cheese in a fresh sausage?Seems like the high temp cheese would be ideal for cooked/smoked sausages that are served cold where you want the cheese intact, but not really seeing any advantage over regular cheese in a fresh sausage that is going to be cooked and served hot.
processhead we have always put hi-temp cheese on our brats.

Pepper jack is a little mild and ghost pepper will burn me down! There is a high temp cheese called lava jack. If fits nice between pepper jack and ghost pepper. It is a jalapeño/habanero blend. I won’t mention where I get it, but you can google it. Maybe something Walton’s can look into carrying?

Thanks for that. I was also looking for an in between
-
While they’re looking into adding different cheese, how about getting high temp bleu cheese on the list
I also saw a thread dating back to 2020 I think, there was mention of adding additional groups for other smoker types. Did anything become of that, WSM or kettle type?
Thanks in advance -

It’s weird. Any pepper jack I buy up my way has plenty of kick to it.

Found two sites that sell it, both out of stock. Argh.

Maybe I got the last bag, I just ordered some a couple days ago…

I would love if the rest of the family would be as heat tolerant me because I would really like to try the ghost pepper cheese

Wish I would have saved the bag, I’d send the rest to you. My one son and I each sampled a little square. No frigging way… Long gone now. Sweating just talking about it. LOL

I made 10 pounds of snack sticks with 1/2 pound of ghost pepper. It was all I could do to eat 1 stick. That stuff is hot for sure.

First it was sticks from another post. Now, hot experiences… As HerbcoFood said, biting my tongue right now.
