Should I?

[Steve H]

I went to the The River Rat cheese store and bought some cheese. I've smoked probably 200 pounds of cheese over the years. But I think some of this cheese should be spared from the smoke.

This is ok.

No problem....

This might get me strung up for smoking! I am really tempted. Wife thinks I'm crazy!

I'd go for it and blame it on Covid. Let us know your decision Steve.

I vote for the curds to be breaded and deep fried.

Or smoked, then breaded and deep fried. Good idea.

Smoke some of the curds and put them in Fries and Gravy and make yourself some Great Canadian Poutine LOL

Oh yeah, I'll be making Poutine for sure. I made that about a year ago with some smoked curds. It was fantastic.

I think I would smoke it all! You could use the smoked curds in a antipasto. Check out this recipe ut looks good. Although I would add in some other olives personally.

Green Olive and Cheese Curd Antipasto is delicious served with salami and flatbread crackers.

Nice looking cheese. I second the poutine

 

[xray]

I’d say smoke the curds and have some poutine.

As for the aged cheddar, I would enjoy it for what it is.

What I am wondering is Why are you hesitating?

That is what I'm thinking as well.

Now that is a good question!

Go for it!

Have you tried Great Lakes Cheese?

Especially the Adams Reserve Cheddar...

I live very close to both Clayton and Adams, but prefer Great Lakes over River Rat.

I've never smoked cheese Steve. I've had 14 year-old single malt scotch whisky a number of times, I'd tend to leave it the way it is. RAY

 

[zwiller]

I'd leave the curds and the well aged alone but smoke the extra sharp. 8 and 14YO?!?!?!?! WOW. I think I now have some smoked cheddar about 5YO. Need to put more down.

 

[HalfSmoked]

Thanks for the like Steve it is appreciated.

I have had them as well. That company has some good cheese too.

The aged cheese is out of this world good. I went back this morning for some 16 and 18 year old. But they were out. I should have got some yesterday when they had some.

Bummer - hind sight foresight.
