20 lbs of cheese and counting
« Reply #-1 on: October 24, 2015, 04:24:40 PM »
Temps last weekend were starting to dip so figure it would be a good time to smoke some cheese - Gouda, Vermont Sharp Cheddar, Havarti and Holland Goat Cheese.  Fill the smoker up with as much as it could take. 

Smoked for around 3 hours, sat in the fridge overnight and then vac sealed.  Decided a stick of smoked butter would be a good thing too (first time doing that)

Tasting will be in about another week.  Can't wait.

I'm all about smoked cheese until I remember that I have to let it sit for a while.  :(

I still have some left from last winter. I did at least 20 pounds worth. I guess I am a glutton for punishment as I
let my smoked cheese go for 30 days before slicing into it.  ;) Yours looks real good!

muralboy it looks great . I will let it mature for at least 3 weeks the strong taste of the smoke will disappear and it will mellow   .
But  this is just  my way.

It will have plenty of time to order - this is my attempt to get a jump on holiday gifts.  If they make it that long.

I will be smoking some more cheese when it gets cold around here.  Maybe not 20 pounds, but who knows.
