    How long will cheese last vaccum sealed in Refrigerator?

    I looked on the forum regarding my question and only found discussions on freezing the cheese.  I assume that depending on the type of cheese it will vary, but is there a rough idea of how long the cheese will keep refrigerated (at proper temp of course) ?

    First cold smoke, first cheese smoke, first Q View

    And now I tried some Jarlsberg that was on sale with wine barrel dust.  It didn't turn out as well as I forgot to open the top vent and the dust kept going out.  By the time I figured that out, the cheese was starting to dry out. Lesson learned, and I got to play with my vacumm sealer!

    Regulating Temperature Fluctuations - Masterbuilt Propane Smoker

    As others have noted, keep the door closed as much as possible, especially with thin walled vertical smokers. One of the common errors in using propane is to over adjust.  The more mass you have in the smoker (water pan, food, heat sink), the more gradual the temperature swings will be.  You...

    What kind of wood do I have here?

    I don't know - Pin Oak has fairly pointed lobes too - red and pin are both fairly smooth bark.  The picture has several species of leaves.  If there were pictures of the acorns that would aid a lot in identifying - red oak has an elongated acorn and pin oak is rounder.

    What kind of wood do I have here?

    The first pic looks like common Pin Oak - the other is harder to tell how much the shag on the bark is from decompostion but White Oak is reasonable.  You might try burning a bit of the wood - oak is fairly distinct.
