Thank you Mr T your threads have become the backbone of my new found addiction to smoked cheese. I started of doing it cause I just wanted to test the smoke house. I immediately fell in love with results and the technical basis involved I appreciate all the time you have taken to make your...
4hrs at 1/2 throttle on the generator seems to yield a great result. 30min rest time and it's amazing. Not a lot of color but flavor is exactly what I'm looking for.
If you notice in the second pic there is a trail of condensed gooey nastiness running to the trap / cleanout. Is that a indication of the smoke cleaning before it rolls upward

I may do a cheese run this evening I have a couple pounds of Gouda waiting. But I have three turkeys in the brine as of yesterday so 5-6 days and I'll fire her up and see how deep the pink can go.
Found an online auction site and got an amazing deal on a huge refrigerator and a smaller freezer/work station. Both for less than $500. The local sub shop was more than happy to give me some used food grade pickle buckets. 1/3 cup of bleach and 1/3 cup of murphys soap and a gallon of water...
