Got a Traeger 'Lil Texas Elite" pellet Grill, with a Cold Smoker attached, for Christmas.

Up until now, my 'smoking meat' was limited to a foil bag of woodchips, thrown into my gas Bar b Que.
My first smoke with my new Grill, was cold smoking cheese. Something I have wanted to try for quite some time. I did the smoke a couple of weeks ago in -25c weather (about 5 below F). So keeping the temp down was not an issue.
Vacuum packed and waiting another week to age.

I love fishing, so looking forward to smoking some fresh trout this spring.

Looking forward to all the knowledge on this forum.

Welcome to the forum! -25c? Heck, that can be a nice spring day in these parts! Haha! It was -47C the last time I smoked bacon in early January!

Welcome to the site Snaver.  You must have fooled Santa pretty good if he brought you a nice smoker like that.
