Smoked cheese today
It sounds like you're experimenting with smoking cheese and learning a lot in the process! The white, billowing smoke you mentioned is often referred to as "dirty smoke," which is usually not ideal for meat but may not affect cheese as much. Cheese is more forgiving with smoke, and the balance...- paulgeorge

High heat cheese is a bit soggy
Your jalapeño/cheddar summer sausage sounds delicious despite the cheese texture issue! The high-heat cheese can definitely get paste-like with prolonged low-temp cooking. A few thoughts: Sous Vide Temp/Time: You might experiment with 145-150°F for 3-4 hours instead. The lower temp/longer time...- jameswilson30

High heat cheese is a bit soggy
The cheese you're using is likely melting too much due to the lower sous vide temperature and extended cooking time. Try raising the sous vide temperature to 150°F-155°F and reducing the time to 2-3 hours to ensure the sausage cooks through without over-heating the cheese. Also, make sure to...- paulgeorge

Smoked cheese today
Makes sense. Thanks for the info. As stated above my cheese turned out really good. The relatives and neighbor loved it along with myself. My next plan is to build an actual smoke house. Idk if my funds I saved are gonna allow that as I have a few other projects I need to get done. We will see tho.- irvin78787884

Time is running out - cheese
In Texas at least there is a limited window for most of us to smoke cheese. Today was my day. I let this batch sit in the smoke for about an hour. Hickory chips with some mesquite pellets tossed in... because I like to play. After smoking I let the blocks sit on the counter for a few...- philpom

Nova Lox for the Woman of My Dreams (WOMD)
WOMD had never had homemade Lox. This had to be rectified. I started with a nice 850 gram (2 pound) fillet. It can be skin on or off. It doesn't matter. I freeze it in a chest freezer for at least 21 days to kill any parasites. I thawed it and made up my curing salt. For each 700 to 1100 grams... -

Hi from PNW!
You know I hadn't considered that, although it seems obvious now that I'm reading it. It doesn't scratch the itch for a new toy, but makes much more economic sense! -
St. Louis Ribs on a gray rainy day. Finished and sliced.
Nice job Brian. Sorry you had a grey day. Beautiful day down here in central FL. We had our monthly potluck day this afternoon. I have the others in awe for my smoking creativity and all I did was smoked mac-n-cheese. We would have tore into those ribs.- Fueling Around

cold smoking cheese
Was the cheese cold straight from the fridge, or did you let it get close to room temp? Was the smoker in the sun? That may explain the softness. As mentioned, dry it off and I'd let it sit in the fridge for a day then seal. The moisture might make the cheese look blotchy, but will not...- BigW.

cold smoking cheese
Well I was smoking some cheese today (sorry, I can not seem to get photos to download). It seems to be sweating a lot. Is that oil from the cheese or something else?? The last few times, I never noticed it. Or is something else happening? Should I be worried? It looks good although sweaty and a...- Buddy55

Cold Smoking vs Hot Smoking vs Smoking
"Cold" or "hot" smoking are purely relative terms. You might have a bottom threshold for the amount of heat, if you are smoking *and* cooking something, or you might have an upper limit, if what you are smoking might melt (cheese) or burn (sugar glaze), or there might be concerns about microbial...- Torch&Tone
