You are addicted now.

The addiction is real. Don't take it lightly. Enjoy the smoke!!!

Every time I go to the store I check for cheese on sale my self! Get a few pounds and smoke it, vaccum seal and ignore it for a while!

 

[Carpenter Gary]

Your right I'm addicted to it!!

I'm stocking up for my spring smoke. I already have 15 blocks of extra sharp cheddar waiting for the 50* weather.

Just the opposite here on the weather.
I've got maybe a month or two before it will be too warm for smoking cheese.
Looks like I better stock up and get busy because smoked cheese disappears real fast at my house.

Where as here in WI where I am...it turned our backyard into an ice rink..

It’s for sure addictive. I’ve only done one batch so far this year but have a whole drawer in my beer fridge full I’ve bought on sale the last 6 months. Just waiting for the right day. Muenster btw is kick ass smoked I think you will enjoy it!

Does anyone know how long vacuum packed smoke cheese will last in the fridge? I have been doing about 4-6 lbs at a time. The longest any of the cheese has lasted was 5 weeks after smoking. It gets eaten up or given away.

Oh boy are you going to love that muenster, that is the only cheese that I smoke anymore.
And I always smoke it with apple!

If it’s vac sealed it will last years in the fridge. I’ve got some that’s a year old now and it’s still good. I’ve seen guys on here aged stuff 5 or more years

Cheese if properly sealed and stored doesn't spoil.

 

[Carpenter Gary]

Got my sealer today and got my latest batch sealed up,may some more cheese this weekend,I'm hooked

Thanks. I am going to smoke a bunch this spring before it gets to warm. See if I can get enough to get us part way thru the summer.

Can never have too much smoked cheese. I’ve only done one batch so far this year but have a ton more to smoke I’ve been saving up and buying on sale. Hopefully tomorrow or next weekend
