I always call my neighbor when I fire up the smoker weather I am cold smoking or hot smoking ! he always brings something over ! well today may be the last time ! a month or so ago his father called me and wanted to know what smoker I have says his son loves it ! so on Christmas day my neighbor will be getting his own mes 40 from his father ! I will be sure to tell him about this wonderfull forum and its wealth of knowledge !

smoked pepparoni is awesome never had it till I moved to this area when I first moved here 8 years ago ! everybody up here seems to have smoked cheese and pepparoni at Christmas ! there is a guy up the road with a big block smoke house he takes orders for cheese and pepparoni ! we use to buy it now I do it myself and for her family ! I found splitting the pepparoni in half gets a better smoke flavor !

I'm going to do this with my next batch of cheese. What smoke do you use. And how long do you smoke it?

well my favorite chips are jack daniels or apple ! I have also soaked and dried apple chips soaked in jim beam apple bourbon ! its awesome ! but a lot of times depending on what I have I will mix apple hickory and cherry !

as far as time wise I smoke the cheese and pepparoni for about three hours try to keep at about 70 dgrees by cycling the mes off and on depending on weather ! take the cheese out then smoke pepparoni another hour with a temp about 90 t0 100 degrees !
