...and it's gonna be 90 degrees with 106 heat index...seems silly in this weather BUT I'M OUT!!!

It'll be plenty cool in my smoke house but cold smoking and 100 plus heat index just doesn't sound normal! Lol

Q Views coming tonight

Yes i should have had some cheese stock piled but since i didn't.... here we go.  It's about 90-95 outside and muggy as all get out and i'm cold smoking!


Loaded up the Smoke Daddy with lump, mesquite and some hickory


Used an pan of ice under the cheese and the temp dropped to about 80....hopefully will drop more! (fingers crossed)


I'll give a  couple of hours and see how she does!
 
If you can hold 80 you'll be fine. I like that high tec thermometer. is that Cheddar and Colby Jack?

Happy smoken

David
LMAO, David i know you have those high tec therms down there in Ar-kansas...lol

Yes you guessed it correctly, 2 colby jacks and 2 cheddars!  Good guess, i'm impressed.
 
The last time I did it in the heat, I had to replace the ice tray every hour...now I have a freezer full of large Gatorade bottles getting ready for my next break in the heat.
Looks good, stay frosty!
 
have you desided how long you will let it smoke?

Now back to the high tec gadget.

How do you check it without opening the door?

David
Lighting quick reflexes...so i let in the least minimal amount of heat!

I'm going by color so i'll check it about the 2 hour mark.
 
Running out of cheese happens to the best of us FWI,.    I am out too.
