A guy at work asked me if I could smoke some cheese for him, I told him I would look into it as I have never done it. So after watching a few different video's to get an idea of how the process works I have some questions.
I am using an electric master built smoker.
Question: my smoker does not got below 100 degrees, Should I use something to help block the heat from coming up and use ice to help cool it down? I watched a few videos, 1 guy smokes his at 250 degrees f* for 20 minutes shuts his smoker off and lets it sit for a hour and repeats that process 2 or 3 times. what are your thoughts? I also seen a guy smoke it in a small true north smoker for 4 hrs with a big tub of ice in it.....I understand that there are so many ways to go about this and some people say cold smoke and others don't. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks everyone!
