Title: Apple Smoked Cheese
Post by: HighOnSmoke on November 08, 2013, 11:29:21 AM

It was nice and cool this morning at 48 degrees so I decided to get the cheese that I bought a few days ago smoked while the
weather was good.   I am smoking Pepper jack, Swiss, Provolone, Colby and Monterrey Jack, Monterrey Jack, Picante Provolone,
Gouda, Colby, Extra Sharp and Sharp Cheddar. We love a variety of cheese in this house.  8)

Ready to hit the Grid Iron.

Put onto the Grid Iron and I am burning apple pellets in the Amaz’n Tube Smoker.

I left the cheese on for two hours.  Temperature stayed at 82 the whole time.

Vacuumed pack and into the refrigerator for a month’s rest.

That looks like it should turn out perfect. Apple is great for cheese.
