    Masterbuilt cold smoker kit

    I've had some PMs on the bracket, and I'm not in a position to make any more, as I used my brother's machine shop, and he's moving away. The design is not rocket science, and all you need is a piece of 1/ 8" or 3/32"aluminum sheet bent to the proper angle with four holes drilled to align with...

    smoked jalapenos

    I have been making jalapeño and habañero powder for years, but never tried smoking either. We have just harvested a modest crop of jalapeños, and I plan to smoke them with our MB cold smoke accessory. The plan is to coarsely chop them and hickory smoke them for 2-3 hours on a silicone cooking...

    What Wood type for Cheese Smoking?

    Ambient temp this afternoon 52 DF, so time to get going. I bought 8# of cheese at Kroger a few weeks ago at < $3.50/#--They sell it in two-pound blocks, and this amazing price appears every few months! 4# of marbled colby, 2# each of mozzarella and colby. Hickory chips, 3.5 hours scheduled with...

    Best way to smoke cheese

    I've been having great luck smoking cheese on my MBS with the cold smoke generator for 4 to 6 hours at night when the temps are around 45°. I'm about to do a big batch with applewood and wondering if I need to age my smoked cheese for a few weeks in sealed vacuum bags in the refrigerator...

    Masterbuilt cold smoker kit

    Thanks for your kind words! I have not tried pellets, but have quite a large supply of the Traeger brand. I read somewhere how much "non label" wood (mostly alder) is included in most Traeger pellets, and was a little concerned about using them as opposed to the "pure" Weber brand wood chips...

    Masterbuilt cold smoker kit

    Two cups of Weber hickory chips (filling the chip hopper about 1/2 full) burned for a little over three hours. The MB instructions for the kit caution against using wet chips. I couldn't keep the A-MAZE-N tray going reliably with their sawdust fuel.

    Masterbuilt cold smoker kit

    I smoked cheese in mine today, as the ambient outside temperature never got over 35º F, and the temperature in the MES pegged at 55º. The cheese came out darkened and firm! Our MES has a MB leg kit installed, so some modification was needed to mount the kit. I suggested this solution to...
