Adventures in smoking cheese

[Redneck_toy]

So, today I'm gonna try and smoke a couple pounds of muenster cheese. Loaded up both my "smokers" from my pellet grill, left the deflector out, and we'll see what happens.
Today is the first day here in Texas that is conducive to smoking cheese. (64*)

I think 2- 1/2 hours was a little too long. Pretty smokey. Hopefully it settles out with a day or two in the fridge

I could never keep mine lit.

Went full boar into smoking more cheeses today.
Just put some medium cheddar, pepper jack, Colby Cheddar, and Monterey Jack on the smoker. Only using the pellet maze, and not the smoke tube at all. Smoke was awful thick yesterday using both

So I smoked all these cheeses for an hour and a half. Went ahead and vacuum sealed them and put them in the fridge. Will revisit them in a week or two

I bet smoked horseradish cheddar would be good

I smoked a couple of pounds of eight year old Cheddar a couple of months ago in the Big Green Egg and it was hellishly good.

I've waited over a year before eating smoked sharp cheddar. Soft stuff like mozzarella and jacks are my go to for when I want something to eat the same week.

I love smoked cheese. Usually do mine for 3.5-4 hours using a maze and mixed fruit wood sawdust. The best batches seem to be the ones where your flirting on the edge of disaster(meltdown).

Busted out some of the Colby- Cheddar today. Wow. This is awesome. I see a LOT of smoked cheese in my future, especially since the wife and I are on the keto.

Yeah. Keto for the win. Being 5-9, 160#, not much weight to lose, but the reduction in inflammation in my body has been nothing short of a miracle. Severe asthma most of my life is a non issue now. Blood pressure down, sleeping better, etc..
Havent documented much on this site, but BOTL has a killer Keto thread, headed up by Glassman, among others. Good to hear about your results....

Another round of cheese going into the smoker today. The half round is Colby. Wish I could find some Gouda......

Was not a big fan of the smoked Muenster. I do like that cheese a lot, just not smoked. The wife loves it though

 

[JG358]

Figured it was time for another batch
