Title: Cold smoked cheese
Post by: Roget on May 21, 2018, 06:41:15 PM

I smoked seven pounds of cheese today in the Bradley.

This smoke consisted of sharp cheddar, Swiss, Colby , Colby jack, & alpine Swiss.
My first time smoking Colby & jack so I'm not sure how I will like it.

I smoked it for two and a half hours with hickory & cherry.

Here is the cheddar.

I let it set on the counter for an hour and then wrapped it in plastic wrap.

Into the fridge.
I will vacuum seal it tomorrow.

I usually get my cheese smoked in April before it gets hot.
It was around 90° today and it was pretty close to too warm.

I probably won't touch this batch for about six months. I think I have enough of the last batch to last that long.
I have another eight pounds I will smoke tomorrow.

Yes, I like cheese.  :D :D

I always figured you for being a little....cheesy..... ;) :D ;D

It all looks good to me. My favorite cheese put to this point in life is Cahill Porter. My intent is to try as many cheeses of that type in Ireland - a couple of months from now. :)

Since I got my pellet smokers, cold smoking is the majority of the action the Bradley sees.

I do still like the ribs that I get off the Bradley though.
