My wife was at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore the other day and they had just put this beauty out on the floor. $125 out the door. I've been looking for one for a while, not so much for doing pork butt, but to increase sausage smoking space and at some point snack sticks, cheese and bacon...
I picked up one for mine. I’m not using as much as I thought I would, but I also haven’t been smoking as much. I’ve been super busy with other things, but it has been handy for keeping items warm while I’m still cooking and when I’m cooking at higher temperatures I’ve been doing a lot of Cream...
Sounds mighty tasty! Love me some sausage and cheese!
Post up a pic or two when you can… As we say around here, pics or it didn’t happen! 😉😆
And I am assuming the sausage has some form of cure… cold smoking in the 80* range for 5 hours?!
So, gentlemen, I will start with the cheese.
It has a slightly different texture, similar to what you can find at Costco (mozzarella fresca).
Why brine? Because it retains moisture, keeping the cheese soft.
It adds flavor—the salt gradually penetrates the cheese, enhancing its taste.
It extends...
Grabbed 8lbs of spares the other day, perfect! We made homemade ice cream, brownies, mac&cheese, plus corn on the cob incoming. Using a blend of post oak and hickory today. Was gonna trim these up St. Louis style but suddenly got real lazy so just a good spare rib trim. I might even sauce...
Looks great! And I'm sit'n here starvin while smoking some sticks. Looks Like Arby's curly fries.
2 weeks ago I made pastrami, then made some great onion potato rolls into almost a flatbread, and made Pastrami Phils. (Item from a Jewish Deli menu 40 years ago where I was a regular and asked...
You fill the tube full of pellets and light the open end on fire with a propane torch and let it burn open flame for about 10 min or so, then snuff out the flames with a gloved hand. the pellets will smolder through the tube.. should get about 4 hours from a 12 inch tube in my experience.. so...
...building my smokehouse I bought myself a new Camp Chef on special.
i decided to st. louis style ribs as the first cook on it.
those turned out pretty good. SO next was smokingcheese on it.
that turned out so good that for Christmas eve. i did maple bourbon glazed salmon.

I just went out to see if a pic of the smoking food would work...nope, I see nothing but smoke through the window and very foggy bits of sausage ends. :D It's smoking really good, with about 4 hours to go! Then 2 get cooked on the grill for good eating with a side of beans. We'll eat outside...
i rolled three more sausage logs yesterday. testing different flavors again. this is addicting stuff. lol i had several friends mention cracked black pepper going good in these. so i made one with corse ground black pepper. i wondered about beer instead of water so one gotthat treatment...
When I was looking for an appetizer to go with a couple of chuckles I was smoking for pulled beef, I ran across this and had to try it. It starts out like a jalapeño popper, with chili stirred into the cream cheese/shredded cheddar/BBQ rub that fills the jalapeño boat. My wife had just made...
Review of Costco fully cooked sausages cold smoked for 5 hours yesterday with mesquite-oak blend pellets: FANTASTIC!!!
My concern with using non-traditional wood for this turned out to be totally misplaced. Right out of the smoker, I grilled 2 hot link sausages for dinner, and the smoke...
Was between Steak or Prime rib for Christmas to go with the 17# ham I picked up and found a good price on 3 big tomahawks and decided to go with them (would have loved to have it all in 1 big piece but...). Cross-hatched the ham and put my sweet/spicy pork rub on it for a little extra something...
Update: So last night I was looking in the fridge and saw a pack of thick cut bacon unopened that I took out of the freezer a couple of days ago. I thought why not whip up a batch of pork-shots. Well the taste was there, but they came out looking like crap. I'm assuming that freezing the thick...
I get about month of cold smoking temps here in FL and back north in FL due to our migration.
Pepperjack (or hotter) is by far the favorite. I chop the cheese bricks down to cracker size
Looks great Jim, that should hold you for a week or three :emoji_sunglasses:
Something I have not tried yet, more of a melted in or on the food kind of cheese people.
But I should at least try some for cheese balls or similer once I get back to some smoking time.
