Cheese and butter and water

[rca dog]

So since I rigged up my cold smoking attachment in anticipation of tommorow's cold smoked moose roast, I thought I would try some other stuff.

Some cheese and some butter,and some water for ice cubes..  Smoked for 2 hours with cherry.  Smoker temp did not go above 46 deg.  Vaccuum packed the cheese, re-wrapped the butter.

Looks good did you let the cheese rest a day before wrapping?

I like the smoked water ice cubes idea for Scotch!

Smoked ice cubes are good in bloody Mary's too. Suppose they'd be good with Tequila. Would be like mezcal.

I did not.  I must have overlooked that step.  I thought that I would not open it up until Christmas.  Do you find it makes a big difference ?

It probably won't make much.Most post I have read they let rest over night.No sence in opening it now.
