I'm putting together my next batch to smoke. 10 pounds stashed so far. And I found this.

I'm wondering just how warm this one will be. The Habanero cheese I smoked is pretty warm. I'm a guessing this will leave it in the dust.
 
That a boy Steve , take one for the team... :emoji_wink:

I think I would try it even though the wife doesn't like hot at all.
 
Go for it Steve!! If it's too hot, just divide it in half, send half to me and the other half to Al.

Problem solved,
Robert
 
I bet that one can cause pain multiple times LOL. I’ve had some Carolina Reaver cheese and it’s more than I could take.

I'm going to have a glass of milk ready! You ever have this before?

No I have not but have had some cheeses that said they were hot. I've also had the sea salt that's infused with the Trinidad Scorpion pepper. All indications were that it'd peel dried paint off the driveway but I didn't find it hot at all. A little tingle, yes but certainly not anything excessive.

I’ve actually had habanero cheese that I smoked and was too hot for me to eat. I took it over to a cousins house because he likes hot stuff.

He called me a sissy, but he started with the eye watering and coughing when he tried a few slices. “Yeah that’s pretty hot!” He said.

Good stuff but hot! I think it depends on the brand too.

Yeah. The salt you sent me was very good. But near as hot as you would have thought. I still have a tiny bit left.

The Cabot's Habanero is pretty much at my heat limit. But, who knows about this brand until you try it.

I’m building my yearly stash too. I have a few lbs that I can smoke when I get out of work today.

I’ll hit up my Aldi’s to see if they have that in stock. Do you have a Maines Foodsource near you? I’ve bought the 5lb Cooper Sharp cheese there
 
Hell yeah I would love to get some of that! Love hot cheese...cabot hot habanero is one of my favorites if not my favorite. Did you try it out yet?

No Maines around here that I know of. Though I see there trucks on the thruway. I'll need to check.
 
A quick check shows there is one close to where I work. I'll look into it.
