Smoked Cheese

Postby Vindii » Mon Nov 21, 2011 2:08 am

Cold smoked some cheese today. Did some Dubliner, White Cheddar, Provolone, Parmesan, Colby-Jack, and Pepper Jack. Gave them 3.5 hours with the
CSG using apple dust.

Were they good?

I have a simple taste - I'm always satisfied with the best.

Didn't sample yet. I like to let them sit for a week or two. They smelled pretty smokey though. :D :D

I see you use a Pro Q smoker.
I have one I use for Trout & Bacon,a niffty little devise.
Will have to try some cheese next time I fire it up.
Give a man a fish,and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish,and you won't see him again for the rest of the season.

I could really eat any type of cheese so I hope this cheese would not be an exception. Your setup looks really nice, though I prefer the apple dust with my grilled corn giving it that extra hint of taste.

I have some hard cheese paces here and will surely want them getting to this taste as well. I hope you would not mind if I replicate this.

I've done some cheddar, brie and Camembert for one full smoke. The cheddar's superb, but you'd hardly know that the Camembert had been in the smoker. Odd really as you'd expect it to be the other way around. The Camembert's back in smoking again as I write.

Once it gets cold enough in Texas, I'll be doing more mozzarella and cheddar. Pecan and alder are particularly good woods.

Don't forget to update us sometime. They came out amazing! :shock: I'm so thankful to have found these boards. In the midst of looking for cooking courses here I've found the perfect place to hone my sausage making skills. So excited to see all the other recipes and methods :D

They came out good. I didn't care for the provolone and parm but the rest where great. I think 2 hour is better with the csg.

Dubliner, cheddar, and colbey-jack are awesome smoked. My 4 year old calls it stinky cheese.

It's amazing how the CSG must perform differently in different situations. If I only smoked for 2 hours you wouldn't know that I'd done it!

Gouda is a great cheese to smoke too.
